Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind, 30 Plays in 60 Minutes 是格雷格·艾伦和芝加哥新未来主义者的结晶. Part theater, part athletic event, Too Much Light… plays fast and loose with the audience-performer relationship, strengthening the absolute “live-ness" of the theatrical event. The actors have scripted, 排练过的戏剧和观众可以控制这些戏剧在60分钟的最后期限内呈现的顺序. 机会和变化的时刻是表演的基本组成部分, 确保演员和观众都保持紧张的状态. Backstage says: “Like the glory days of Saturday Night Live, only funnier and slightly surreal,而华盛顿广场新闻则称其为“对人类状况的一次重新焕发活力的探索”.“你会笑,你会哭,你会吃披萨,你会在一个小时内完成.

David started out working in the business as an actor. His credits include General Hospital, Days of our Lives, The Young and Restless. 除了许多电影之外,他还在戏剧作品中表演了多年. 作为一名摄影师,他能够与顶级经纪人和选角导演合作超过20年. 他曾与克尔斯滕·邓斯特、肖恩·威廉·斯科特、艾莉森·洛曼和斯科特·沃尔夫等人合作. 他的重点是帮助演员放松,在一个创造性的支持性环境中享受乐趣.
