This Performance is open to public to get in sometimes between 6pm-10pm and leave whenever you want.
It is part of the MFA Spring Show of the grad students of Interdisciplinary Art program at SFU and it's a good opportunity to watch other performances, including dance, theatre and music within this period of time.
A Doll’s Room is a four-hour durational piece that does and does not happen on the stage. It explores the gap between the virtual and the real, and investigates the absence within the two worlds.
The piece tries to practice absence: absence of actors, composers, designers and production elements such as light or sound. It uses very minimal technical support. This performance is an attempt to study the differences and similarities between theatre performances and reality shows. It explores the space between the performers as well as the space between the audience and the performance.
As the title suggests the spoken text mostly comes from Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House. Ibsen’s play provided me literary with sentences. I treated his sentences as just sentences, and our dramaturge wrote and rewrote them considering no original logic or intention. The characters are equally important, but they accidentally remained reflective of Ibsen’s characters.
