The Regard of Flight 07' -- Free Association Segment

"The Regard of Flight" (1983) is a wonderful 45 minute comedy play with three performers: Bill Irwin, Michael O'Connor, and Doug Skinner.

In this clip, Doug Skinner (narrator/musician) introduces the free association segment. Later, we have dance segments and a stark kinetic energy segment. Bill Irwin (The Actor) and Michael O'Connor (The Critic) discuss hat tricks (or "hat moves" as we prefer to call them) and theatrical devices.

(The video is pixelated from the beginning until about the 1:08 mark.)

"Use the Device!"

"No...it's cheap."

I love The Regard for Flight, especially Doug Skinner's straight man. Good job on putting these up.

OMG I haven't seen this in YEARS! Thanks for putting it back up! I would always hold my Complete Shakespeare book and yell "SHAKESPEARE!" and be disappointed no one would get it

Does anyone have a link to the marionette bit that Bill Irwin does in this show? It's some of the most fantastic physicality I've ever seen onstage.

Wonderful, you gotta love Bill Irwin. Being an all around lover of entertainers that prefer the older style I really love and appreciate this. I particulary liked the hat moves.
