As an epilogue to the six-month run of The Brig, The
Living Theatre will present Mysteries and Smaller Pieces, a recreation
of the 1964 collective creation that changed theatrical history.
Created directly after the company had been playing The Brig for
several years, Mysteries was the first play to be presented on the
world's major stages without fictional characters, plot, scenery or
costumes, the virtually wordless composition redefines the nature of
theater as pure communication between performers and audience.
Relying on nonverbal sounds and improvised actions, Mysteries invokes
the Dionysian sources of drama, offering the audience the opportunity
of assisting in a series of rituals meant to liberate the actor's
deepest resources.
The Mysteries company brings together founder Judith
Malina with members who have worked for decades together with a new
generation of young members. The production is being directed by
Judith Malina and veteran Mysteries performer Gary Brackett, who is
also designing the lighting.
