Meet TV Man, Dartboard Woman, a Pizza Hut thug, Lollipop Girls, and the Paper Monster: just a few of the inhabitants of Quasimondo's Paper or Plastic. Devised with MACA (Milwaukee Area Composers and Artists), this surreal satire commingles music, circus, dance, puppetry, and a paper doll burlesque into a singular bin of performance.

Paper or Plastic is an original piece devised from  materials we take for granted. Man-made materials that lose their value following our interactions with them and become rubbish. As consumers we perpetually rummage through information and offers: things we judge, place values on  and filter accordingly.  Paper or Plastic examines this process and questions the categories of trash and treasure.

"Brian Rott is distinguishing himself quickly as a visionary expanding the limits of traditional stage-bound theatrical performance. Founder and Artistic Director of Quasimondo Milwaukee Physical Theatre, Brian Rott’s upcoming run of Paper or Plastic strings together a thread of scenes that rely nearly entirely on movement and stage direction, rather than dialog, to create a duskily humored, absurdist and variety filled fun-time."
