Michael and I.....After 6 years and 14 American City Tours, some 90+ unique performances....still struggle to find a language to properly describe 'Butcher Holler Here We Come' as the uniquely hybridized, 'not your ma and pa's coal miner player. We textstormed earlier and I wrote this general 'morale' in the play. Also sought a triangular lens to help categorize a dimensional view that its description could be aligned at: 1. Sensorial, 2. Dissociative 3. Psychic or Psychological Thriller. We also enjoyed catchphrasing to Toxic Masculinity, Loretta Lynn-meets-David Lynch (Lynn-Meets-Lynch), Twin Peaks on Testosterone, Anne Pancake meets Sarah Kane, or Artaud Meets D'JPancake.
