ABSTRACT

The Theatre of Mistakes' core group's ensemble work, going, enacted what the group called being each other. Jason Bowman has remarked on the unusual wealth of documentation produced by The Theatre of Mistakes. The subtitle to 'The Theatre of Mistakes' was 'a performance art group'. The Antigravity series of photographs represent what was perhaps never really a performance, though it was done in public; it was a photoshoot by company member Mike Evans. The authoring and therefore copied protagonist of each act shifted from one person to another from act to act, the order chosen by the throw of a dice publicly each day. The Manifesto of Mutual Art, a document with no single author and written to provoke further multiple authorship, was a utopian project. The authoring and therefore copied protagonist of each act shifted from one person to another from act to act, the order chosen by the throw of a dice publicly each day.
