57-member itchy-O brings its enveloping multimodal performance theatrics to Denver’s North Wynkoop (adjacent to Mission Ballroom, 4242 N. Wynkoop) for a drive-in concert series unlike any other, sponsored by Denver Film.
Launching Friday, Aug. 14, the SYPHERLOT: DRIVE-IN RADIO BATH combines the group’s pyrotechnic and percussive bombast with short-band private radio broadcast and other interactive elements ensuring each vehicle has an individual-yet-connected sonic experience.
In the wake of pandemic-delayed performances, the time is right to launch a cosmogenic conflagration, laying waste to notions of concerts in “the new normal” by ushering in a joyful sonic bath of post-apocalyptic unifying magic.
And in typical itchy-O tradition, expect a safe-yet-interactive experience in this otherworldly drive-in series:
Think Lion Country Safari meets Thunderdome, with interstellar performers interacting with vehicles to turn each car into a dancefloor, all while adhering to CDC-recommended public-health guidelines.
Aside from performers interacting with vehicles, this is a contactless event. All CDC-recommended guidelines will be followed with all crew/staff wearing gloves and face coverings. Guests are required to remain in their vehicles’ or in their vehicles’ immediate vicinity at all times with the exception of using the restroom or purchasing concessions.
Sound will be transmitted through a private FM radio station and follow FCC guidelines along with itchy-O’s mobile 12v sound system(s).
