Written by Stuart Hoffman --- Directed by Geoffrey Hoffman
After a life of sin, saxophonist Cole "The Barbarian" feels dried up. He's sick of the music, the fans, and the attention. Before leaving town, he makes half-hearted attempts to make good on wrongdoings he’s done to others, while meeting the one woman who might actually understand. Throughout this, he is wondering why his shoulder hurts and cicadas suddenly find him so interesting… Inspired by folklore and the early work of Gustav Flaubert, Cocopelli explores an artist at war with himself, oblivious to all the good his art has given others. Featuring: Brian Pedaci, Tom Kondilas, Rachel Lee Kolis, Cathleen O'Malley, Laurel Hoffman, and Joseph Milan.
