San Francisco Fringe Festival: the Burnings September 17, 2010

Three women in an asylum face accusation. The patients defend their lives by performing the stories of their imposed isolation. Forced to turn their personal narratives into a profit-making scheme for the institution's head doctor, the women grasp at control over their own stories. The piece uses movement, verse, and song to explore the way elements of every human being are marginalized by a culture built around money and power.
