Runnals XXX

Runnals XXX is an immersive theater experience exploring the ways in which censorship (as an action and as a theme) operates in and through the history of performance. Audiences travel between three different performance spaces in Runnals to experience Susan Glaspell’s Trifles (about the silencing of women’s voices in early 20th century America), a mashup of scenes from 2500 years of banned plays (from OedipusRex to Angels in America) and a collage of movement, music and images provoked by what is seen, unseen and erased. Runnals XXX is conceived, adapted and directed by Lynne Conner and features sound design/composition by Peter de Klerk, scenography by Jim Thurston and costumes by Christine Nilles.
