Elevator Repair Service
completes its staging of a trilogy of classic American works with The Select ( The Sun Also
Rises), a staging of Ernest Hemingway's novel. A
stage littered with liquor bottles and cafe chairs transforms seamlessly
from Paris cafes to Pamplona streets. After their highly
acclaimed adaptations of The Great Gatsby and The Sound and the Fury,
ERS turns its sights on Hemingway's alcohol-soaked expatriates in this
world premiere that features the ensemble's trademark sound design and
highly energized choreography. Hemingway's dry wit, a doomed romance and
even live bullfighting (as re-imagined by ERS) make this a compelling
conclusion to ERS' exploration of modernist American literature of the
1920's.
