Just Like Hollywood

Blind Faith Theatre/Central Standard Theatre

JUST LIKE HOLLYWOOD (I SEE YOU WATCHING) continues the decades-long collaboration between Director, Melanie Stewart and Obie Award winner/Playwright John Clancy working at the crux of contemporary dance and theater practice in America. Joined by performer Kylie Westerbeck, this new work centers on, explores and explodes the entrapment, degradation, and exertion of control over a young woman’s body in post Roe v Wade America. On a bare stage, using only props supplied by a demanding and impatient master of ceremonies, Westerbeck must justify her continuing survival and prove her worth, and her right to choose her own destiny. Is she a beauty queen? A brood Mare? A willing lover or a wanton whore? What is the combination, what is the key to unlock the cage she exists in, she has been legislated in and she will die in if she cannot escape? Maybe there's another way out.

A rigorous, disturbing yet playful dance and duel, JUST LIKE HOLLYWOOD (I SEE YOU WATCHING) examines the trap ensnaring so many women today, pointedly in a post Roe v Wade America. Trapped in an invisible but all-ecompassing prison she is legislated in and being molded to accept, if not embrace.
