“This Chicago troupe is conjuring phantasms to die for…” - Ben Brantley, The New York Times
Told almost entirely without dialogue, Lula del Ray recounts the story of a lonely adolescent girl growing up with her mother in an isolated trailer on the edge of a vast desert satellite field. One night, while watching the stars in the dark sky, she hears a song by the soulful country duo The Baden Brothers on the radio. Obsessed by their music, she runs away from home, heading to the city and into a world of danger, deception and disappointment. Set in the American Southwest of the 1950s, the original, feature-length, live cinematic shadow puppet show Lula del Ray is a mythic reinvention of the classic coming-of-age story, inspired by the imagery of old films and featuring a live score inspired by the music of Hank Williams, Roy Orbison, and Patsy Cline.
