More Heart Than Brains: The Collected Plays of Bailey Scieszka, a new publication by What Pipeline, offers an in-depth look at the world of Old Put the Clown. Featuring an introduction by Kat Herriman and an insightful essay by Clayton Press, in addition to the original transcripts of Scieszka's first six plays printed on bright rainbow-hued paper. Edition of 500, 130 pages with black & white and color images.
"Scieszka's anthology arcs around what appears at first to be Old Put's journey to self-discovery, but by the end is more about the audience's education. Scieszka unveils Old Put like Steve Jobs rolled out new iPhones. She paints with the colors of crescendo and denouement. It's cross-platform performance, the kind we are always being promised but under whose bizarre voodoo all mediums seem predestined to coalesce: the costumes, the drawings, the toys and the tapes. Old Put describes this bombastic, DIY combo as "art entertainment," and it is."
- Kat Herriman
"In the smart phone age, when attention spans are short and "snackable" content is celebrated and rewarded, Scieszka's plays are best approached using two media: print (this catalog) and on-line media. More Heart Than Brains can be seen and followed on Vimeo. Nonetheless, watching the performance should not be an excuse for not reading the script, which enhances, even clarifies, the delirium." - Clayton Press
