RED OVER RED

31 Down's RED OVER RED creates a horror theater that is immersive, visceral and contemporary.
The performance follows four people working in and around the airline industry to explore distrust in one another on a personal level, and distrust in the unknown on a primal level.
Featuring recurring crash nightmares, the work graphically dives into our renewed fears of flight.

"Merging their distinctive techno-sonic approach with the 1970s' airport-disaster film genre, 31 Down creates a moody neo-Expressionist piece that continuously shifts perspectives while referencing camera-mediated narrative." - Paul Menard, Time Out New York

"intricate, immersive, and frightening" - Nathaniel Kressen, NYTheatre.com

"well-acted and technologically accomplished...DJ Mendel is deliciously creepy " -Andy Horwitz, Culturebot

"...sonic slaws of rich heavy cream bass, treble spice, and sugary buzzing and crashing that can alternately soothe the psyche or send a listener over the edge, screaming from the theater" -Robert Tumas, The L Magazine
