Oil! Theatrical performance based on the work of Upton Sinclair Directed by Delia MacDougall The Magic Theater, Fort Mason Center, Building D, San Francisco November 7 - December 7, 2003
San Francisco Bay Area theater group Word For Word brings back its hit show, OIL!, (Chapter One: "The Ride"), the first chapter of Upton Sinclair's sweeping California epic chronicling the tumultuous oil boom and how it altered the course of California history. OIL! - Chapter One: "The Ride" barrels the viewer into a thrilling drive across the California terrain, mined with Sinclair's prescient observations of the political as well as geographic clime of California a century ago. The set for OIL! is an award-winning metal sculpture based upon a 1912 Stearns automobile, and built as an interactive kinetic piece by sculptor Oliver DiCicco.
