DORIS at Theatre 154
Step inside DORIS’ dimly lit basement apartment as she puts on the act of a lifetime — a strange cocktail of dramatic sights and sounds conjured by her unnerving imagination. An aspiring actress and has-been that never was, DORIS confronts phantom memories and nightmares born from the dreams she can’t let go in a performance that may be her last.

A found audio pastiche of old Broadway & Hollywood is realized through lip-synched performance, laying bare the identity disintegration, emotional labor, and substance dependencies that can plague the wayward performer perpetually waiting for their star turn.

DORIS is an intimate, environmental performance created by Joan Nelson, with Andrew J. Mullins and Cory Savage. Presented in the basement at Theatre 154 — Powered by Out of the Box Theatrics and Chashama.
