You’ve seen his art, now hear the story behind the art in DreamWeavers LA production of VINCENT.
DreamWeavers LA presents Vincent a one-man play written by Leonard Nimoy (Star Trek) and stars Michael J. Sullivan, who has performed this show for the last few years on tour including dates in Chicago and Las Vegas and is thrilled to bring it The El Portal Theater in The NoHo Arts District of North Hollywood.
The play is set just after the death of little-known painter Vincent Van Gogh, while rumors are flying in Paris. Some say he was a penniless madman, a frequenter of prostitutes and soon to be forgotten artist of trifling quality. Others denounce him as a wayward priest and a foreigner. Many whisper that
he took his own life in a moment of insanity. His brother Theo (Sullivan), Vincent’s confidante and lifelong supporter, takes the stage in a rented lecture hall to set the record straight.
Directed by Jeanne Dunphy, Vincent will provide a multimedia experience by beautifully displaying Van Gogh’s works on stage through projection as Theo talks about them, allowing you to view these paintings and drawings while listening to their fascinating backstories.
