DRAMARAMA
Written by Pulitzer Prize-winner Annie Baker and voted as one of the top
ten plays of 2009 by
The New Yorker
,
Circle Mirror Transformation
is a
funny, heart-warming look at four lost souls in search of themselves and
new beginnings. When these imperfect strangers – beautiful, disillusioned
actress Theresa, shy divorcée Shultz, moody teenager Lauren and the
gregarious James (played by award-winning actor Daniel Jenkins) – join
an acting class led by “earth mother” Marty, there’s no telling what kind of
drama will ensue. As the fun and games blur into their private lives, this
acting class transforms into so much more, as role-playing gets awkwardly
personal, jaw-dropping secrets are revealed, hearts are broken and wars
are waged, won and lost. See it from 29 January to 15 February at DBS
Arts Centre, 20 Merbau Road. Tickets from Sistic.
