Seattle School - REMEMBER ME (Klaus Nomi bathroom)

"They have their exits and entrances;

And one man in his time plays many parts"

- AS YOU LIKE IT, William Shakespeare

If you cannot knock that occasional feeling that the material world is having its way with you, and that previous notions of solipsistic universe centralities may be incorrect, well – let’s just say you’re not alone.

Seattle School’s REMEMBER ME (Klaus Nomi bathroom) is a three-minute, one-person performance, taking place in a private bathroom, for no one other than yourself, your anatomy, and the larger hydrologic cycle at hand.

Because this is your business, not ours. But this business of yours is circuitous, and might be more momentous – nay, resplendent - than you think. It’s our business simply to point this out.

Inspired by the cranky yet correct writings of Austrian architect Bernard Rudofsky – in particular his loving descriptions of sublimely baroque Japanese rural bathrooms of the late 1800s – REMEMBER ME enlists 20^th century electronics, 80s German cabaret singer Klaus Nomi, Japanese incense, 21^st century software, arias from English composer Henry Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas (1689), and a colorful array of fresh carnations (changed daily) to create the lush and meditative ceremony you need during this moment of loss.

Effluvia funeral, or brief biological bon voyage? Meaning is fleeting, but egress is for certain, and REMEMBER ME (Klaus Nomi bathroom) provides the proper aural / visual / luminescent / aromatic requiem for this important event in your life. A befitting poignant plateau of fondness and farewell - yours for a simple door-closing.

All the world’s fluids are players; your body is merely the stage.

Debuting Friday, Dec. 19th in the women's restroom of The Hideout ( 1005 Boren Ave, Seattle, WA , 98104. 206.903.8480).

Run continues on Dec 19, 20, 26, 27, 31, Jan 2, 3, 9 and 10.
