Details

She Said is a truly multi-media production par excellence, based on Détruire... dit-elle (Destroy, She Said), by Marguerite Duras. Focusing on the concept of intervening space, its content and form explore different notions of 'in between - from relationships between the audience and the stage, movement and voice, to video and theatre, electronics and acoustics, destroying theatrical illusions along the way. Drifting between absolute artistic freedom and mind-numbing terror, in the void between reality and imagination, the narrative follows a writer who eventually succumbs to the will of her creation. As fiction becomes stronger than reality, she yields her personal authority to that of the characters she has brought into being. Beneath the electronic hum and the restless pixels of the play s surface, lies the pain of lost time and unfulfilled desire. She Said premiered in February 2005 at Cankarjev Dom in Slovenia, and will appear in the renowned Act French festival in New York this November, following its ICA run.
