Description Faker arose out of a two week workshop Obarzanek undertook with a young dancer. Despite best intentions, not everything went to plan. Success, experience and earned respect count for little when pitted against the doubts that haunt an empty studio. In Faker we find Obarzanek at his computer reading an email he received from the young dancer letting him know, in the most brutally honest language, her thoughts on the time spent working with him. Frank and darkly humorous, Faker exposes the expectations and disappointments, the creative aspirations and personal doubts of dance and theatre making.
