In Performance: Object Collection’s No Hotel (NYC)

Object Collection’s No Hotel
September 7—22, 2013 @ 8pm
Tickets: $18 general

Incubator Arts Project
(located inside St. Mark’s Church)
131 East 10th Street
New York, NY

Object Collection returns to the Incubator Arts Project with a bold new opera tackling the suspension and simulation of life. Object Collection’s No Hotel is an opera about hotels, films, and bad behavior. The piece channels the split-screen experience of Warhol’s “Chelsea Girls” – a pre-produced film runs side-by-side with the live performance. The script from one is performed in reverse in the other. Accompanied by a live ensemble, No Hotel is an opera unlike any other: part theater, part film, part aggressive noise, part delicate chamber music.

No Hotel is collectively conceived by Kara Feely, Travis Just, Daniel Kötter, and Elisa LimbergNo
