THE BRIDES

Harry Kondoleon's dark, feminist, poetically composed fairy tale about abandoned brides conducting rites of exorcism.

Two weeks of intensely imaginative group choreographed rehearsal, with masks, costumes, and props, was interrupted to offer a work-in-progress presentation of the first 15 minutes or so of this piece, but the production was canceled when one of the performers sustained an injury during the public showing. (Six months later, she reappeared as Agnes of God, for Mercury Theatre.)
