For the Love Of...synopsis

 

Falling
A meditation on falling in love, falling in lust and falling out of love, through the lens of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream.  Originally commissioned by Flux Theatre Ensemble.


Featuring: Petra Denison, Jean Goto, Jennifer Griffee, Jennifer Moses, Katy Rubin & Sonja Sweeney

Excess
Scrutinizing society’s obsession with stuff through Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard.  A wry and risky investigation how our materialism has manifested itself into loneliness, isolation, and disconnection in exchange for the satisfaction of inanimate objects.

Featuring: Jean Goto, Jennifer Moses, Katy Rubin & Sonja Sweeney

Corpus
Our infatuation with the human body through the mystery of
Kafka’s The Metamorphosis.  Today we have all but lost the idea of the body as a functional instrument.  While magazines, reality TV and the movie industry bombard us daily with images of how we should be, an all-male cast will scrutinize our obsession with the aesthetics of the human form.


Featuring:  Patrick Berger, J.J. Mehren, Karim Muasher & Justin Neal.
