April-May 2015: Night (Thyestes 2.0) Theater Play

Theater for the New City
From April 24 to May 10, 2015

The New Stage Theatre Company is presenting the world premiere of "Night (Thyestes 2.0)", a movement theatre piece written by Charles L. Mee with projection design and Visuals by Laia Cabrera and Isabelle Duverger. Inspired by Seneca's Thyestes, the piece combines sections of the classic tale with an equally dark modern vision. A whirlwind of vivid scenes bridges the torture, murder and cannibalism dogging ill-fated Tantalus to modern plagues both frightening and banal, from war crimes to YouTube vapidity. This world premiere performance brings a bold mix of standout projection design and visuals, choreography, costuming, lighting and sound to Mee’s rhapsodic vision, resulting in a night of wonderfully disorienting theatre.

Directed by Ildiko Nemeth in collaboration with:
Laia Cabrera and Isabelle Duverger - Visuals and Projection Design
Federico Restrepo - Lighting
Egle Paulauskaite - Costume
Galway McCullough - Fight Choreography
Jon Gilbert Leavitt - Sound Engineering

With Beth Dodye Bass*, Dana Boll, Adam Boncz, Kaylin Lee Clinton, Sofia O.C. , Catherine Correa, Geraldine Dulex, Markus Hirnigel*, Brian Linden*, Galway McCullough*, Brandon Olson*, Jeanne Lauren Smith, and Chris Tanner.

Haute Jewelry Designer Alexandra Mor Story & Inspiration

Film Created by Laia Cabrera & Co.
Directed by Laia Cabrera
Assistant Director & Animator Isabelle Duverger

Haute joaillerie designer Alexandra Mor is an embodiment of the modern women. The superior craftsmanship of her limited-edition and one-of-a-kind collections showcase an attention to detail and design sensibility typically found amongst Place Vendôme jewelers.

Alexandra, born into a family of french couturiers, grew up in Israel’s multicultural mélange, and was exposed to the concept of handcrafted design at a young age by her French couturier mother. Always drawn toward the creative realm, Alexandra initially pursued a career as a filmmaker. In 2004, she found her passion while taking jewelry bench classes in New York City’s Jewelry District and after developing her own unique brand voice and designs aesthetics, have launched her first collection at Phillips de Pury in 2010.

A decade later, Alexandra Mor has opened her first dedicated salon at Dorfman Jewelers in Boston and will soon offer her work at New York’s iconic retailer, Bergdorf Goodman.
