Synopsis: | Weaving together text, Butoh dance, and original music, Art of Memory is an examination of the mind and how it stores knowledge in the body. Four librarians trapped in a fantastical library search for an exit and create elaborate physical games that explore memory and illusion in Tanya Calamoneri's stark atmospheric performance. As the shifting nature of time threatens the librarians' fragile sense of logic, they seamlessly inhabit the roles of handless maidens, the Brontė sisters, an ill wind, and minor deities. Comedic and dark by turns, the piece employs books, children's games, alchemy and questions of being as it traverses internal landscapes of memory. Inspired by Frances Yeats' Art of Memory, the text is both original, and collaged from Luis Borges' The Library of Babel, Grimm's Fairytales, and Emily Brontė's Wuthering Heights. | |||||
