Wed, May 23 2007 - From Cradle to Grave: Three One Act Plays (View Original Event Details)
|
Three one-act plays, 30 minutes each, 11 EOC members. One grand time.
The evening started off with "Pieces", which gave us a glimpse at the reality of aging. Dissention among the EOC members about whether this prouduction explored dementia or Alzheimer's. Either way, it gave us something to think about!
Next up was "Perdu", a story about a girl who discovers herself through the kindness (?) of an old man who convinces her that she must look after his dog should the old man pass away. Some twists and turns to this one and we were left with some questions and confused expressions.
The final production, "The Travelling Nude" was interesting and entertaining. It explored the social stigmas around nudity and was quite, um, revealing, without any actual nudity (to the disappointment of some!)
The evening ended at the nearby Second Cup where we chatted about the various one-act plays and recent and upcoming EOC events.
A good time was had by all and with my first event under my belt I am now looking forward to the next one.
