A site specific devised piece at The Freud Museum, in collaboration with MA Scenography at RCSSD.
Five excerpts deconstructing and reconstructing the concept of intimacy, told by an all-female ensemble as we played with levels, power and psychology at Freud’s house.
“One of the most impressive achievements, in fact, was the emergence of a shared ethos in which you all developed as multidisciplinary artists. It seemed that membership of this group instilled an unquestioning commitment in each of you to working as a hybrid writer-performer-director-designer-cinematographer.
The piece drew structure from its direct inspiration in Tonderai’s writing and La Ronde, and found a compelling shape and cumulative impact in the skill with which you layered your different modes of dramatization – confessional monologue, two-hander and self-reflexive meta-theatrical dialogue.” - Matthew Lloyd, head of MA/MFA Theatre Directing
