导演的笔记

可怕的游乐场伤害 by 拉吉夫·约瑟夫 is the fast-paced, intense story of Kayleen and Doug, two characters whose intertwined histories and romantic tension play out over scenes that span different ages in their lives. Bouncing between grade school interactions and adult clashes, the play races toward a desperately consequential final reckoning in their lives.    

这出戏是现实主义的. The characters and setting are both portrayed in the present-day, modern world. Our playwright reconfigures time and space to give us a completely deconstructed, 事件的非连续顺序. 以这种方式, our handle on "who's telling the story" shifts aggressively and often and makes for a wild, 动荡的旅程. 

An ensemble of eight to 10 actors will bring this poignantly turbulent story to life by not only inhabiting the two characters at their varied ages but shifting the stage to create the different settings of their lives. 跨种族铸造, 年龄与性别认同, the ensemble will literally have a hand in "setting the scene" for what will be a dynamic presentation of a relationship under constant strain. The play is an exciting opportunity to set actors loose in a dialectic about the intermingled qualities of love, 互相依赖, self-image and—ultimately—our tolerance for pain.
