Single Carrot Theatre Presents HOTEL CASSIOPEIA, 3/28-4/29
by Jennie Mamary - March 25, 2012
Single Carrot Theatre is gearing up to open the 3rd show of their 5th season, Hotel Cassiopeia, written by Charles Mee and directed by Ensemble Member Genevieve de Mahy. The play's subject, Joseph Cornell, is famous for both his intricate shadow boxes and his eccentricity. Cornell's mind was nearly as cluttered and complicated as the basement he inhabited, and Hotel Cassiopeia offers a glimpse into both. "In Hotel Cassiopeia, Cornell's boxes are described as 'palaces of memory,'" said de Mahy, "He attempts to hold on to these unique, fleeting moments-to preserve everything that they were so that they can be experienced again and again. There is a dichotomy created in making a play about preservation of memory", she continued. Like many of the offerings at Single Carrot Theatre, Hotel Cassiopeia does not provide answers to all of the questions it raises about Cornell, his art, and his life. It does, however, offer a seat for the audience inside the mind of a recluse, an eccentric, a genius. Patrons are encouraged to touch and explore the set, while the sights and sounds of Cornell's life clutter the intimate space. Each performance promises its own nuance and exploration. "Theatre as an art form is always moving, constantly changing," said de Mahy. "Like life, it will never be the same twice".
