Cleansing the Senses
Cleansing the Senses
Synopsis:
In the show, Rose employs movement, monologue, and song to tell the story of his peripatetic wanderings in search of ecstasy, transcendence, and self-knowledge. With Yiddish song, American spirituals and love songs, a Shakespeare sonnet, the invocation from Pan Tadeusz by Adam Mickiewicz, a love poem by Bertolt Brecht, sections from Four Quartets by T.S. Eliot plus Rose's monologues set in Berlin, Joshua Tree, Vilnius, Lithuania, Santa Monica, and a popular Polish restaurant in NYC, Rose traces a mythical journey of self-discovery and in so doing invites the audience to experience this process through the actor's presence. Through the thematic frame of prayer, creation, love and forgiveness, he calls upon the audience to be present, attentive, still, to "cleanse the senses," to live and create more fully.
