Mnemonic Mnemonic
Text Devised By Complicite
Directed by Karla Boos
July 5–July 28, 2013
LOCATION: Kirkwood Building, in East Liberty

Mnemonic / ni’monik / adj. 1. assisting or intended to assist memory 2. of memory In 1991 tourists descending a peak in the Alps discover a shriveled, naked body emerging from the
ice. How old is it?
 
A man alone in his apartment searches for clues to explain the disappearance of his girlfriend. Place and memory collide while stories older than the millennium connect us to each other and to those who came before. Mnemonic, with its ground-breaking performance and production styles, constantly breaks apart and reforms itself, much like memory itself. The play examines our understanding of time, our capacity to interpret history, and our attempts to retell the past.
 
STARRING Malcolm Tulip, Carolina Loyola-Garcia, Anand Nagraj, Ken Bolden, Patrick Jordan, Katya Stepanov, and Antonio Marziale. DESIGN BY Joe Seamans, Joe Pino, C. Todd Brown, Tony Ferrieri, and Albulena Borovci.

Parlour Song Parlour Song
By Jez Butterworth
Directed by Martin Giles
November 1–November 24, 2013
LOCATION: TBA

Jez Butterworth won the Tony Award for Best Play for Jerusalem in 2012. But before that he wrote Parlour Song, which the Daily Telegraph said “combines the comic, the erotic, and the downright disconcerting with superb panache.” A suburban housing development is home to two friendly couples. But beneath the bland routine of affl uence, their illicit desires and painful memories prompt mysterious occurrences and downright eerie disappearances. Like John Updike, Butterworth compellingly shows us that suburbia breeds its own brands of melancholia and madness.

Madagascar Madagascar
By J.T. Rogers
Directed by
Sheila McKenna
January 31–February 16, 2014
LOCATION: TBA

 If you choose to vanish, you owe your past nothing. A mystery, a ghost story, a memory play… At three different periods in time, three Americans fi nd themselves alone in the same hotel room overlooking Rome’s Spanish Steps: June, a young tour guide of the city’s ancient ruins; Lilian, her wealthy and elegant mother; and Nathan, a rumpled university economist who was best friend of Lilian’s deceased husband - another economist, a brilliant and famous one. Madagascar is the haunting story of a mysterious disappearance that changes these three lives forever.

Pantagleize Pantagleize
By Michel de Ghelderode; a new adaptation by
Jay Ball
Directed by
Jed Allen Harris
April 11–April 27, 2014
LOCATION: TBA

Pantagleize is a wild rumination on revolution; an explosion of theatricality fi rst produced in 1931 by Belgium’s great anticipator of the avant garde. Subtitled “A Farce to Make You Sad,” it takes its title from the central character, a philosopher-clown unwittingly involved with a cell of revolutionaries who take him for their leader. He robs a bank, falls in love, and goes head to head with forces far beyond his understanding. With Michel de Ghelderode’s gleefully ironic language and vibrant, Dickensian characters, there are no sacred cows and a new surprise greets every scene. Pantagleize’s darkly humorous attack on militarism continues to feel potent as the revolutions begun by the Arab spring continue, and as nations remain between a rock and a hard place.
