ONCE UPON A FIGHT

2024

In Once Upon a Fight, everyday arguments of two twin sisters are brought to the theater stage. directed by a script, they swap roles to examine the boundaries of the self, and whether it is actually possible to win an argument with oneself. through exhausting play, spontaneous moments, and simulated improvisation, such as going off script and leaving the stage, the performance slowly unfolds through a constant negotiation between control and collapse, rehearsal and reality.
