Programme 4 is a feature length "broadcast" of analog television built around the aesthetics of vintage local broadcasting, created by Rachel Lichtman and heavily inspired by the UHF programming of Chicagoland. Through fictional station IDs, commercials, interstitials, faux programming, musical performances, and surreal broadcast fragments from the fictional town of Golden Sands, the show explores nostalgia, consumer culture, humor, self-actualization, and the strange comfort of analog media environments. In an algorithmic age of endless scrolling, and post-internet exhaustion, the show becomes a lens through which to think about the emotional architecture of pre-digital life.

These shows have been successfully touring the US in cinemas, venues, & museums as immersive events, featuring Rhodes players, guest hosts, post-screening 70's style talk show panels, larger-scale variety pre-shows, and special surprise performances. 

Details and tickets coming soon!
