IMMACULATE MISCONCEPTIONS are "the simplistic explanations,
half-truths, canonical misinterpretations, and outright
disinformation received from the mouths of teachers by Catholic
school students."
In this monologue performance, Phorkyad tells his stories of
Catholic grade school and high school, finding the humorous and
serious aspects of the positive-and negative-role models of his
youth. With references to secular events (such as the Kennedy
Assassination and the NASA moon landing), as well as more religious
happenings (the world's oldest nun giving sex advice and, of
course, Vatican II and the Baltimore Catechism), Phorkyad seeks to
discover how his Catholic school education shaped the college
professor he is today.
IM features original music provided by accompanist Thaylon
Singh, a long-time collaborator of Phorkyad's. Thaylon will perform
vocal and instrumental pieces on guitar and other instruments. The
collaboration has been mostly long-distance over the Internet (as
previous collaborations have been), using web pages and audio
streaming software to preview possible musical selections.
