Ms. Greer declined. The FilmMailer gave Mr. Pennebaker (“Don’t Look Back”), who had filmed scenes for Mailer’s 1970 mockumentary, “Maidstone,” $3,000 to record the evening. Finding it unexpectedly moving, Ms. Tierney gave a copy to Elizabeth LeCompte, the artistic director of the Wooster Group, with whom she has worked over the years. “It feels like we’re in jeopardy right now,” said Ms. Tierney, on a break from a recent afternoon rehearsal. While technicians worked on the video, one actor playing Mailer strummed a ukulele; another chatted with Ms. Tierney, who plays Ms. Greer.
