A decidedly modern take on an ancient topic, THE BLUE HOTEL wrestles with the Turkish notion of hüzün, or “melancholy”. Drawing from the music of Joni Mitchell, the paintings of Eric Fischl, and a choreography all its own, THE BLUE HOTEL is devised theatre. Starting four weeks ago from nothing, the Bilkent 3rd year performers, guided by director Whit MacLaughlin, Artistic Director of New Paradise Laboratories (USA), have cooked up an unusual theatrical vision of araf, or limbo, complete with a monkey and dreamy scenes of love. Expect unanswerable riddles, floating ambiguities, and blue feelings, blue cocktails, everything blue.
