This work has grown out of this current moment in time and the pandemic that we are all living through. It addresses themes of identity, isolation, and conversation. Who am I in this moment? Where am I and with whom?
Thank you to my generous and creatively and physically fearless cast. It has been inspiring and moving to be let into their homes and to have collaborated on this work with them.
