The Gospel According to Jack Vitrolo is an experimental tragi-comedy which examines the conflict between the individual and the health care establishment. Following the struggle of one man's search for his pregnant wife, kidnapped by paramedics in an ambulance and now lost in a large municipal hospital, The Gospel According to Jack Vitrolo highlights the way our personal secrets and taboos get publicized, categorized and exploited by corporate doctors and nurses obsessed with controlling our body/mind/spirit with bills, pills and sex. The South Wing (TSW) was founded in 2003 by a group of international artists working at Robert Wilson?s Watermill Center. Under the guidance of former Tadashi Suzuki acolyte Kameron Steele, Argentinean theatre evangelist Ivana Catanese, and San-Fran actor turned downtown juggernaut Gillian Chadsey, TSW has presented a series of viscerally engaging performances that appeal to poetical, political, intellectual and bawdy tastes alike, embracing the challenges that language, culture, race and tradition present to the NYC community.
