Fitting In


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sun, 04/02/2023
Fitting In is a show about seeing new ways to belong. Through movement and live musical accompaniment provided by each of the actors, three performers will explore everyday objects and containers, in an attempt to find everything a home, and demonstrate that the right place isn’t the most obvious place. Everyday objects will become extraordinary - creating a magical immersive world for the audience. The show is set in an attic or garage and will use various boxes and crates in the design.

There is absolutely, positively nothing worse- nothing more impossible and difficult than putting things in their proper place. At least, that is what these three Siblings believe. Faced with the task of sorting and organizing “the Attic,” it quickly becomes clear that where everything belongs is not simply a matter of where it might fit, what a thing does, or even what color it is (just to name a few methods), but is instead a question of what a thing could be. The Oldest, The Middlest, and The Littlest all may think that they know which way is best, but until they learn to really look and, more importantly, play with the objects and each other, they are going to discover that fitting in isn’t so straightforward. Is a blanket a blanket, meant for the long flat box on the shelf? Or is it the sail of a boat setting off on an epic journey, and so of course it belongs in the barrels that the sailors will load on the deck of the most magnificent ship you can imagine.
