Mendi & Keith Obadike: Four Electric Ghosts May 16, 2009

Performance duo Mendi and Keith Obadike premiere 'Four Electric Ghosts,' a new multimedia opera that extends their experiments with layered narratives, online performance and popular culture. Drawing from Amos Tutuola's novel 'My Life in the Bush of Ghosts' and the arcade game Pac-Man, the work creates a composite world at the intersection of game culture, folktale and pop songs. The narrative evolves through masquerade, movement, live music and video interviews.
