ICON
...a postmodern multi-media retelling of the Narcissus
myth by Synaesthetic Theatre
Now open!! Limited Run!!
ONLY 3 MORE WEEKS!!
A self-absorbed media junkie spurns an obsessive
lover, instead choosing to admire his own fractured
reflection, as seen in the television screens and
icons he surrounds himself with. Around him,
shape-shifting nymphs vie for his attention as they
take on cinematic guises of fame and immortality.
In a world where image is everything and meaning
lies hidden in subconscious waters, can doting lover
Echo help Narcissus break through the illusions? |

Synaesthetic Theatre is a collective of artists dedicated to creating process oriented, multi-media theatre, synthesizing voice, text, movement, music, video, and visual art into a single performance experience. As a community of creators, our collective strives to provide a home in which artists from all realms are supported and encouraged to take risks, exploring their craft as tools for communication. In this age of expanded media, two-dimensional stimuli, and quick fixes, Synaesthetic Theatre utilizes live experimental performance to inspire an environment where intellect and emotion function together -- redefining the boundaries of theater, artist and audience, and encouraging conscious investigation and evaluation of the world around us. |
