Description |
Inspired by the darkly rich works of artist Mary Leunig...as interpreted by Handspan Theatre, Daze of Our Lives is a poignant journey into self-acceptance, through a character known simply as She/Her, fraught with the daily pressures of 'domestic engineering' and the requirements of ever changing perceptions of both herself and the outside world. |
