At the Center for the Less Good Idea, Deville Cohen worked on and presented McGuffin, a collaborative performance piece created and directed Cohen. Borrowing its title from fiction, a McGuffin is a plot device in the form of a goal or another motivator that a narrative pursues, often with little or no explanations nor rationale: it is the drive itself that is the subject. Cohen’s performance translated the cinematographic chase scene into a high-action interdisciplinary performance, using architecture, strict choreography, and video projection in order to subvert the spatial syntaxes of both theatrical and cinematographic spaces and the hierarchies they embody. Directed by Cohen and performed by Thulani Chauke, Tushrik Fredericks, and Nonku Phiri.
