THE RIME OF THE ANCIENT MARINER

September 11 – October 12 at Z Space

Directed by Delia MacDougall and Jim Cave

Considered by some to be a “green parable,” this epic voyage is a tale of man’s crime against nature, with the shooting of the magnificent albatross—and the havoc which nature wreaks in return. Z Space’s stage will be turned into a sailing ship (Oliver DiCicco and Colm McNally, scenic design) surrounded by the sea and the elements (Hana Kim, video projections; Ray Oppenheimer, lighting, Matt Stines, sound; Nol Simonse, choreography; Nikki Anderson-Joy, costumes). We hope that you will enjoy Word for Word’s expansive take on this take on this classic epic poem.

We should go!

This gets at animals, but also the rep of romantic poet boys today, and etc.
