A smart, funny play – about a play. Creative processes comically trip over the sweat, bad wigs and method acting in an “important” new work … about lettuce.
MacIvor’s spoof sets up (and knocks down) what actors think about during performance, sending audiences into howls of recognition.
Deliciously pointed metatheatricality.
Make it a theatrical HAPPY HOUR!
Come join the simpletons for a ‘Happy Hour” as you transition from work to FRINGE with a bargain-priced piece of theatrical satire – about the theatre.
This is a Play is a play about a play ~ the creative process counterbalancing the sheer sweat, bad wigs and tricks of performance. Three actors perform a play within a play. Instead of hearing the storyline from their script, however, we hear their thoughts, hopes, fears and motivations from within their own minds as they struggle through the crazy stage directions from their ‘dance back-ground’ director, attempting to talk over the persistent musical score by the overly philosophical composer, and trying to find meaning in the playwrights words.
Featuring Llysa Holland, Pamala Mijaov and Ricky Coates
