Google Doll
Written by Nina Louise Morrison
Directed by Steve Bogart
September 24 & 25, 2016
Boston Public Library, Commonwealth Salon (Copley Branch)
Please note that this is a workshop performance, and will be read script-in-hand. This is an exciting opportunity to see where the play is at in its developmental journey -- while there will be some movement, props, costumes, and design elements, the script is still in progress and this is not a fully staged production.
Nora and Torvald are marooned on islands of their own making in this synesthetic adaptation of A DOLL'S HOUSE. As their warped game of telephone threatens to overwhelm them, will they find a way to communicate? GOOGLE DOLL explores the exuberant beauty and futility of translation.
Please Note:
This performance runs approximately one hour.
