| Description |
Mem Morrison requests the pleasure of your company. Take a front row seat, join the family and meet the many potential brides at his long overdue wedding reception. Ringside is part written, devised and performed with a group of 30 local female performers of different ages and nationalities who play the roles of Mem's potential wives and wedding guests. Audience members are required to wear headphones as the celebration and rituals of remembered wedding receptions are used to explore issues surrounding autobiography, identity, sexuality, memory, culture, and self-censorship. |
