Two spaces, seven performers, a director but no script, scenery and props with purpose but uses that are open-ended.
The work occurs simultaneously and spontaneously in two unrelated narratives, each taking place within its own respective space.
As the piece favors self-interpretation of each performance by the actors, an element of randomness and novelty exists in each staging.
The guiding theme however is clear, the experience of womanhood.
Being of the opposite sex, I can't fairly speak to this expression of womenhood, or its completeleness of lack thereof, but I can question the completeness of the director's and performer's understanding of themselves, being at such a young age in respect to the entire arc of human life.
Furthermore, its important to point out meanings, roles, and identities are all concepts in a constant state of flux, and evolution. Perhaps at this point, their experience is just as it was displayed; It's impossible for the spectator to judge.
In the end, the only obstacle to this performance concept is be the ability to self-understand and self-analyse without being overly self-indulgent, but once again, this is something that can only be appraised by the performers themselves and does not lend itself well to criticism.
