Chroma

Inspired by Thomas Mann's "Death in Venice" and the life of Derek Jarman, "Chroma" delves into the complex nature of beauty and desire. It explores the struggle of an aging writer, disillusioned with words, who turns to film to capture the elusive beauty embodied by a young man. The play examines what remains when language fails under the weight of personal and societal pressures, reflecting on the silencing of queer voices in an increasingly intolerant world. This production offers a poignant meditation on loneliness, aging, and the yearning for youth that can only be observed, never touched. It's a thought-provoking piece for those interested in the intersection of art, identity, and the challenges of expression.
