Susie Wang - Burnt Toast
Burnt Toast is the final installment in Susie Wang's horror trilogy about human nature. It is part love story and part vampire tale in which the past drains the life from the future.
Veranstaltungsdetails
«The most sickly entertaining theatrical experience of the year.» What reads like a movie review of The Substance IS a movie review of The Substance - but in our opinion the better way to start promoting this play from Norway.
Without fear of long trigger warning lists and close to body horror and theatrical splatter, we find ourselves in this theatrical spectacle somewhere in the deep south of the USA, in an all-red hotel lobby with a reception desk and two elevators. Betty, the receptionist, is busy typing when Danny appears with a silver briefcase on his wrist. At the same time, Violet is sitting in the lounge, sipping the drink of the month, an eggnog cocktail, while breastfeeding her baby daughter. The afternoon in the lobby becomes increasingly confused, and the blood flows in messy streams as dreams, hallucinations and bodies merge into questions of life and death.
Burnt Toast is the final installment in Susie Wang's horror trilogy about human nature. It is part love story and part vampire tale in which the past drains the life from the future.
Possible triggers: eating, drinking and smacking noises, blood, cannibalism, depictions of death, accidents, sexual harassment, alcohol addiction, depictions that can evoke associations of miscarriages.
Duration: approx. 85 min.
