Thanks so all who attended yesterday’s lively discussion of Redmoon theater’s “Hunchback” with director Leslie Buxbaum-Danzig and writer Mickle Maher!
Join us next Monday, November 9 at our canonical time, 3-5p. We’ll be meeting next week in Fulton Hall for a live performance by University of Chicago ensemble, IMPROMPTU. Discussion to follow with music director Roger Moseley, and stage director Majel Connery.
In 1783, W. A. Mozart composed the music and plot for a commedia dell’arte pantomime intended for Vienna’s upcoming carnival season (in which he himself was to play Harlequin). Although written for string quartet, only the first violin part and the sketchiest outline of his scenario survive. The performance on Monday showcases Moseley’s work reconstructing the fragmentary violin part for performance with newly-devised scenario by Connery.
