In the span of an afternoon, an older woman reflects on the absurd New York City events that shaped her binary life, her binary marriage, and her not so binary world after death they did part.
Petar Miloshevski fearlessly and eloquently takes on the writings of Jennifer Skura Boutell, seamlessly blending them into a witty and profound monologue. Through a mix of physicality, sound, and light, he crafts a "jester-like" reflection on the topic at hand: the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks and the profound impact they had on both the individual and society. At the heart of this performance is a deep exploration of the meaning of 'freedom', challenging the audience to reconsider its significance in a post-9/11 world. Petar's dynamic approach brings both humor and gravity to the stage, inviting a powerful reflection on the changing nature of freedom and identity in the wake of tragedy.
