SUMMARY:ORLANDO: A Rhapsody
DESCRIPTION:Two actors\, father and daughter\, tell their own story through the words of Virginia Woolf\, composing an alternately fanciful\, visceral\, and vulnerable duet. Playing with language\, movement\, and dress-up\, like children\, they put on their own “living-room play.” All the while\, wrestling existential questions of gender and fiction: or\, what it means to be and why we tell stories. ORLANDO: A Rhapsody is a shared reverie\, just as much as it is a quarrel\, between two generations and two experiences of art\, of life. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis production marks Vinora Epp’s directorial debut; it is conceived and performed by Steven Epp (of The Moving Company) and Vinora Epp.  \nThe run time is 70 minutes with no intermission.  \n    \nPerformance Venue\nThe Southern Theater \nAll Performance Dates\nMonday\, 5/26 at 7:30pm\nTuesday\, 5/27 at 7:30pm\nSunday\, 6/1 at 7:30pm\nMonday\, 6/2 at 7:30pm  \nContent Warnings/Age Recommendations\nContains semi-nudity (via see-through clothing)\, sudden loud sounds\, and mature themes including suicide and frank discussions about sex and gender. This performance is recommended for ages 14 and older. \nThemes\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe performers in this show are approaching the themes of Virginia Woolf’s from different perspectives. There are moments when it takes effort to communicate and understand each other’s point of view. When have you had a hard time understanding someone’s point of view?​\nVirginia Woolf wrote a novel called Orlando: A Biography. The title of this show has a similar title\, replacing Biography with Rhapsody. According to merriam-webster.com\, “rhapsody” is defined as:\n\n1 – a portion of an epic poem adapted for recitation\n\n\n2 – archaic : a miscellaneous collection\n\n\n3 – (a) a highly emotional utterance; (b) a highly emotional literary work; (b) a effusively rapturous or extravagant discourse\n\n\n\n4 – a musical composition of irregular form having an improvisatory character\nWhy might they have put this word\, “rhapsody\,” in the title? How might it contrast with the original novel’s title? What might these definitions express about the intent of the play?\n\n\n\nAccessibility\nMany performance venues offer accessibility accommodations such as wheelchair seating\, assistive listening\, sensory ear plugs\, ASL interpretation\, open captioning\, or audio description\, among other options. These accommodations are specific to each event\, and may not be available everywhere.
