Throwback Thursday: Elia Schneider's 2000 Production of ROOMS at La MaMa

Elia Schneider returns to La MaMa this week with the show Judgment on a Grey Beach.  Elia was last at La MaMa in 2000, with the show Rooms which she wrote and directed.  

The NY Times said of that show: 

"To feel such exhilaration and despair at once is a rare epiphany. And it strikes one afterward that the story could have easily been about three men or a mixture of sexes. Ms. Schneider is faithful to Kafka in her imagination; her concern is all of humanity."

Take a look at these rare photos of the production of Rooms from 2000:
