Description
The Art of Building a Bunker is a dark, viciously funny story recounting a week in the life of your average Elvis as he endures mandatory workplace sensitivity training. Elvis struggles to meet the demands of Camerson, the sensitivity traning leader, and to work with the group that surrounds him without revealing anything about what he really feels or believes. His struggles culminate in a radical oration delivered on the last day of the course to the sensitivity group, workplace colleagues, as well as international luminaries of sensitivity like Nelson Mandela, Geddy Lee, and Malala.
Created for Toronto's SummerWorks 2013, Verdecchia explained to Colin Thomas of the Georgia Straight the impulse to create Bunker: "We were just looking around the city and at the culture generally," Verdecchia said - remember that Rob Ford was Toronto's mayor at that time - "and there was a kind of incivility in the air, which I think is still there. It seems like it's permissible to say things that you couldn't say before, like 'Fuck her right in the cunt, ' or whatever guys are saying on television." (Verdecchia is referring to the phenomenon that reporter Shauna Hunt very publicly challenged recently.) "There was also this incredible anger on the web, YouTube videos with people ranting about their situations or about Obama--a lot of Americans. They seemed like really disenfranchised folk who were stewing in their anger and fear. And that struck us as really interesting. Adam and I genuinely want to ask about what is permissible."
Bunker is to be played by one virtuosic actor.
