PERSONALLY, I FIND IT RUDE TO BE BORING Part of UNDERGROUND/ PROGRAM I

An underground LA rave descends into chaos

Derek Spencer is a theater director, installation artist, and filmmaker based in Chicago & LA. He was a prominent voice and community leader in the 2010’s LA immersive movement. For 7 years Derek served as the artistic director of Ceaseless Fun, a critically-acclaimed LA-based immersive theater ensemble creating provocative, underground performances. Recently, Derek returned to his hometown to pursue an MFA degree in studio art at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. He creates work with ensemble casts, using improvisational and collaborative techniques to construct scenes of chaotic spectacle and uncanny intimacy. He likes being the last person to leave a party.
