WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Circles is the story of a painter who imagines his ideal beauty so intensely, that she becomes fantastically alive. Using language that ranges from the banal to pure poetry, the audience witnesses this raw play like thumbing through a pile of Polaroid snapshots; each scene encapsulates the emotional control, captivity, demands, expectations, release, and joy of a relationship as it verges on disintegration.

"I want the audience to have an experience as well as to enjoy the traditional flow of plot and story. Yet, in a dreamlike fashion, every scene encapsulates its own thing. There are no time references, each scene is meant to be timeless."
- Playwright, Actor, Joseph Byrne

Anton (the artist) played by Joseph Byrne and K (the ideal), played by Gina dos Santos. As the play develops Anton self-implodes under the reality of his creation, while K, who is born into this world as a full grown adult, learns in reverse, and wishes to experience her new life away from her creator.

Box Office Hours: 7-8pm, Tuesday-Saturday

No one under 18 admitted unless accompanied by a parent.
