Synopsis: | In 837 Venice Boulevard, director and choreographer Faye Driscoll revisits her childhood while examining the construct of identity and how we blame the world for our problems. The act of looking to her childhood for answers became a metaphor for the human compulsion to place blame-whether with parents, lovers, society, or ourselves. This dance theater piece uses text and song generated in collaboration with the three performers, who throughout the work manipulate each other like puppets, poking fun at how we are all constantly telegraphing who we are, based on who we think other people perceive us to be. Using physical manipulation and humor, 837 Venice Boulevard paints the lonesome emotional landscape of a neglected kid left to her own fantasies and fears, while exploring universal themes of identity, blame, and how exhausting it is to have to 'be somebody' all the time." | |||||
