Help us bring our work to the stage this spring, in our hometown, Minneapolis.
ORLANDO: A Rhapsody is a theater piece directed by Vinora Epp, conceived and performed by Steven Epp and Vinora Epp.
Two actors, father and daughter, wrestle the existential themes of gender and fiction: or, what it means to be and why we tell stories. It is a duet performance, alternately fanciful, visceral, and vulnerable. Summoning a rhapsodical confrontation between two generations, and two experiences of art, of life.
To do so, we pull from Virginia Woolf's body of work; from Shakespeare; from feminist philosophers (Butler, Haraway, Le Guin); from My Dinner with André; but most of all, from ourselves.
After working on our written adaptation long-distance, then workshopping in both the US and France, ORLANDO: A Rhapsody premiered at The Tank NYC (“a home for emerging artists”) in April 2024.
We will bring it to Minneapolis for a limited run in late May/early June 2025. We are already beaming with pride.
Thank you for support. We can't wait to see you from the stage, very soon.
