This was presented/performed by Linked Dance Theatre as an interactive theatre presentation. Not my favorite but, hey, it was free. Since it’s interactive, I don’t want to give too much away, in case you want to go to Governors Island later in September, which I highly recommend.
Margaret: Cindy Rosenthal, Maya Gonzalez, Rita McCann; Frances, Florence, Carolyn: Kellyn Thornburg; Tyler, Young Tyler, Paul: Jordan Chlackpecka. Friends & Family: The Audience (aye, there’s the rub)—yes, we were part of the performance.
Yep, Margaret (whose birthday we were ostensibly celebrating) couldn’t remember who we were. Bless our hearts, we played along—posed for a photo, applauded a birthday cake, signed a card, blew up balloons, read from a kiddie Peter Pan book (me), and interacted a lot—‘only go through the open door’ …
It was interesting, and I played along. I wish I could tell you how it ended. I was asked to gather my things and exit at one point. (I’m not quite sure why—I was not drunk at the party.) Another person came out after I did. She was also not convinced as to why. No one else came out for at least 20 minutes more.
I wish I knew how it ended. But I will not be going back to find out. I could be thrown out earlier!
