"As a member of Pommegranite Puppets, Maya is currently working on a short shadow puppet play, "Thief!" It is loosely based on the classic film, "The Bicycle Thief" by DeSica. Here, the hero is transformed from a post-war Italian everyman into a New York bike messenger. He still has the same concerns: What good is a bike messenger without a bike? The puppet play will be performed at the 2nd Annual Bicycle Film Festival at the Anthology Film Archives on Wednesday, May 15th and at the W. 13th St. Pier on Thursday, May 16th. Both at 6:00 pm, both FREE! check out www.bicyclefilmfestival.com for details."
