WHAT: A story of grief, unrequited
loved, gender identity and a novel in a bottle.
“Food for Fish is a wild ride through the
imagination of a tortured artist exploring: Love, grief, gender identity,
self-worth, and existential turmoil. Who am I? What do I really want? Where can
I find love? What happens when I lose love? What is the point of it all? Am I
telling my own story in life, or is someone else telling it for me? I find
those questions incredibly, brutally human.
This play uses humor, abstraction, darkness, and
absurdity to grapple with these questions. The intention of this play is not to
be realistic (although there may be moments that feel very natural), but rather
to live in the fluidity of emotional truth. Have you ever been overwhelmed by a
feeling? Maybe love, jealousy, disgust, betrayal, infatuation, etc., but come
to understand that the feeling inside doesn’t match the actual circumstances
being played out in real life? In Food for Fish our aim is to explore the
abstract representation of these big feelings, not the reality of the
circumstances.”
Director, Michael Mullen
