Franz Kafka's Love Life, Letters and Hallucinations in Short Scenes with Live Actors
Cinematic Up-Close Live Theatre performed in a 47 seat theatre in an architectural masterpiece by Julia Morgan.
"Franz Kafkas Love Life, Letters and Hallucinations.." is a bio-pic drama about the inner-life, family struggle, and libido of one of the most famous 20th Century writers. Often laugh-out-loud funny and periodically flashing into an Expressionism that exposes the hallucinations that fed his creativity, it fleshes out the reality of a Jew living in anti-Semitic Prague in the years before and after World War One. Not unlike Philip Roth's "Portnoy" of the later 20th century, it explores his obsessive desires for and repulsion by women. With the snapshot-scene qualities of Mamet's "Sexual Perversity in Chicago" and like Neil Simon's "Jake's Women" but with a literary spin that shows us the roots of the creative mind of the artist as well as his libido.
