Known for Acting
A chamber play depicts the tense yet tender daily interactions between an elderly intellectual grandmother mourning her late husband and her daughter’s child on maternity leave, who lives alone in the family’s large house. Their generational clashes over values, technology, and changing social norms reveal both alienation and moments of mutual understanding.
Expressed by movements and metaphors without language, the story’s plot develops dreamlike interactions between simple human beings. Taking up the invitation to look into the made up odd-world and its fascinating odd-forest, the spectator gets to meet the naive, childish, but in their plainness still wonderful, inhabitants. Boy meets girl. Girl meets another boy. Boy meets another boy. And girl meets another girl. But did we try all possibilities?
