Program Note
Century Hotel is a sumptuous and stirring epic of an anonymous hotel room that, over the course of a century, sees every kind of human drama. Through a series of seven intricately woven stories we witness the defining moments in the life of room number 720. We begin in 1921 on the hotel′s opening night and moving to the depression-era 1933; then we emerge in 1945 for a post-war reunion continuing on to 1953, the sexually liberated 1960′s and the decadent 1980′s, before the dramatic climax on the eve of the new millennium. Century Hotel is a sweeping tale of love, betrayal, passion, and tragedy. Complex and emotional stories are interwoven, mirroring and contrasting one another until they create a seamless portrait of relationships as the century progresses.
