Auditions for World Premiere: Caligari (San Francisco, CA)
HurLyBurLy Proudly presents auditions for a World Premiere: Caligari
Adapted and reinvented from the 1919 silent film The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, the stage production follows Francis, his quixotic relationship with beautiful Jane, and the horrifying mystery of Dr. Caligari and the subsequent murders that proceed his path. In his fervor to learn and reveal the nature of Dr. Caligari and his somnambulist Cesare, Francis risks his life, lover – and his mind. Like the film, the piece cultivates stylized and expressionistic movement to capture the romanticism and extremes of the human experience while exploring truthful and more naturalistic moments in connectivity and relationships.
