Muses IV: Memories of a House

The Vestige Group

August 27th through September 12th

Private Residence

Launching the second production in their fifth anniversary season, The Vestige Group brings back their award-nominated series of Muses: Memories of a House. The intimate theatre experience will be staged during weekend evenings in a private home from August 27th through September 12th.

Following three successful runs - beginning with the original Muses in 2007 - Muses IV continues the annual tradition of creating theatre in the intimacy of a home setting. This year, the home of Rod and Candyce Russell, in the South Lamar area, will be stage for the original story.

The past productions of Muses I through III featured many individuals' lives portrayed throughout the house, creating distinctly unique times and settings as the audience stepped through each doorway. For Muses IV this year, local Austin playwrights were provided with a snapshot of a family of five characters who live in the house.

While traveling from room to room of the historical home, audience members will happen upon moments that construct the web of this family's history. Blurring the line between time, real life, and the theatre - from photographs and a tour inside the house - the playwrights and actors will create scenes that bring each room to life in a different way.

Muses IV opens on Friday, August 27th, at 8 p.m., and continues on Friday through Sunday evenings until September 12th. Tickets are $15 to $25, and Sunday night performances are "Pay-What-You-Can." The entire tour lasts approximately two hours.

Producers said that flat shoes are encouraged, as stairs are involved in the production. The show will take place both indoors and outdoors, and as a private residence, the house is not handicapped accessible.

Advance reservations are required, and the exact address of the house will be given upon ticket reservations. For more information and tickets, visit www.VestigeGroup.org.
