Dry Cleaning is a multi-disciplinary work for two performers synthesizing performance, dance, and video. The project is a reinterpretation of the Orpheus and Eurydice myth projected through the lens of international espionage, encrypted correspondence, and disguise.
Kronis and Alger describe "Dry Cleaning" as " a multi-discplinary theatre piece for two performers, synthesizing performance, dance and video. The project is a reinterpretation of the Orpheus and Eurydice myth projected through the lens of international espionage and disguise."
Orpheus, in Greek myth, was a gifted musician who traveled to Hades in an attempt to rescue his beloved from a cruel, early death.
"Thematic tropes (or codes) from espionage cinema are drawn from such titles as 'Alphaville,' 'Three Days Of The Condor,' 'The Spy Who Came In From The Cold,''The Third Man,' and 'Thunderball.' These references become transparency templates, layered over the structural foundation of the Greek myth.
Dry Cleaning in this context is an espionage term, defined as an agent's obligatory daily period of inactivity while knowingly under surveillance.
K and A elaborate further: " 'Dry Cleaning' uses writings of Marguerite Duras, Sigmund Freud, Andre Breton, Abbott and Costello and others to create elliptical dialogue for a multitude of characters.
"The performance space,” says Webster, “ is defined by a series of eight sliding panels that serve as portals to conceal and reveal the stage action and as video projection screens, allowing performers and digital imagery to occupy and interact within the same pictorial frame. The shape and function of the panels make these allusions:
-the open slits in early kinescope machines
-the iconostasis enclosing the altar in Greek Orthodox churches
-the characteristic columns prevalent in classical Greek architecture
The performance is highly-stylized with a movement score rooted in traditional Greek folk dance and Ancient Greek art and sculpture.”
