Moving Parts Theater, Inc.
is a Manhattan-based nonprofit organization
founded in 2000 and dedicated to the
incorporation of performing, literary and visual
art. Founded by seasoned performer and director
Charles Loffredo, the company counts among its
ranks an ever-growing list of actors, singers,
dancers, writers, artists, photographers,
musicians, composers, choreographers, puppeteers
and designers – all collaborating to create
productions which seek to expand the boundaries
of traditional theater by combining several
different genres into one unique theatrical
event.
Since its inception the
company has produced three plays: Broken Boughs
(February 2002 - Blue Heron Arts Center), Lovers
and Other Stranglers (June 2004 - Gene Frankel
Theatre), and Edie in LEGS! (May/June 2005 -
Gene Frankel Theatre). The company also
presented the fundraising event Deliciously
Wicked Fun in October 2001 at the Blue Heron
Arts Center, featuring Academy Award winning
actress Kim Hunter. Moving Parts Theater is
currently planning its fourth production Rites of Privacy – a one-man show written and performed by
David Rhodes and directed by Charles Loffredo,
to be produced in summer 2007.
