Synopsis: | Alice's frequent fainting spells and bizarre stories never worried her family or friends until a recent suicide attempt lands the troubled twenty year-old in the hands of an overbearing and eccentric psychologist, Dr. Blythe. Wary of her therapist's prescriptions, Alice refuses medication until an unexpected trip down the rabbit hole brings her own idea of sanity into question. In this strange underground world, Alice must choose between taking doctors orders and returning to reality, or succumbing to the characters in her mind and remaining forever in Wonderland. Relax! Alice is a loose adaptation of the classic Lewis Carroll stories; Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass that pushes the boundaries of visual and spatial expectations and explores our perception of reality in a world where true human connection seems to have lost its spark. Relax! dives into the mind of a misunderstood young girl trying to find her place in today's over medicated and stereotype-driven world. | |||||

Synopsis: | This show is part of the Dream Up Festival. This is the official blurb: Feeling like outsiders since childhood, best friends Hailey Chen and Lillian Chin have been planning their escape from their hometown in whitewashed suburbia to pursue lives of fame and fortune in the giant melting pot of New York City. But their plans for "living the high life" quickly disintegrate when their dream loft in Soho turns out to be a one bedroom in Flushing and Lillian's native Chinese cousin unexpectedly tags along. As the girls attempt to fulfill their juvenile plans for success, their own differences become evident as they are forced to confront the dysphoria attached to their ethnic roots and explore their own prejudices concerning sexuality, self-identity, and issues of race and society as first generation Asian-Americans. | |||||
