Kaleidoscope is an experimental play drawing from research in emotional compartmentalization as a form of coping and color-emotional association. The production follows Iris, a deeply flawed individual struggling to come to terms with their own mind and emotions. Throughout the first act of the play, we randomly experience seven figures who represent Iris' emotional extremes as they live trapped in orderly delusion. In the second act, we see the dismantling of this organizational system Iris has inflicted upon himself as emotions are allowed to spread beyond the confines of their “proper” place within the mind. The ideal set of this piece uses the community to construct a “mind” in the time before the show as a representation of the untamed nature of the human mind.
