Corey Dargel
Removable Parts

8:00 pm, November 21, 2008
The Warhol Theater
Tickets: $20; Students: $10

Removable Parts is performed by Corey Dargel (voice and electronics), Kathleen Supové (piano) and directed by Emma Griffin with choreography by Yvan Greenberg.

Removable Parts is a theatrical series of love songs about voluntary amputation. In an updated version of the lover's plaint, the unrequited lover – whose heart is broken – begins to question the usefulness of his other body parts. Loosely based on medical journals, psychiatric case studies, and actors' monologue collections, the songs and banter in Removable Parts take a sideways look at amputees, devotees, and wannabes, with a balance of empathy and irreverence.

"An entertaining new musical... built on humorous pop songs about how far someone will go in the name of love."

— New York Magazine

"An oddly touching series of songs about broken hearts and voluntary amputation... Dargel combines the elegant craft of a classicist with the droll wit of a pop savant. Perfectly pitched between sentimentality and detachment, [his] songs can touch even the most hardened heart."

— Time Out New York
