Alarms & Excursions February 4, 2009

The first playlet Doubles involves two couples who check into identical hotel rooms next to each other. Their rooms, which are mirror images of each other, are separated by over thin walls. Through the play, we slowly discover that the only thing that eventually separates them is not the physical wall between the rooms, but the invisible walls between each other. The second playlet Immobiles is an exposé of human disconnection in a world without mobile phones. A frustrated couple tries to coordinate a proper meeting place using an answering machine and coin operated phone booths for their foreign friend when he arrives at the airport. Broken bones and broken hearts are the result of this techno faux pas, at Ranga shankara. For details contact 9845017975.
