Mikel Rouse Trilogy – American composer and performer Mikel Rouse’s innovative multi-media opera trilogy, presented for the first time in repertory. Fifteen years in the making, these three sensational pieces include: Failing Kansas, a one-man show inspired by the murders and men at the heart of Truman Capote’s In Cold Blood; Dennis Cleveland, in which Rouse transforms the landscape of trash-talk TV into rock poetry; and The End of Cinematics, a “hyper-real” 3-D movie live on stage. Failing Kansas: The Factory Theatre. Dennis Cleveland: Toronto Film School Studio. The End of Cinematics: Bluma Appel Theatre.
