Girls are sculpted by foreign hands from the moment they are born, and in the case of this girl, the hands come with the face of a friend. A friend who is beautiful, radiant, powerful, the kind of presence everyone can't help but notice entering a room. She is everything the girl is not. She is a mother, a best friend, a teacher and an enemy with an angelic face. Meanwhile, Girl's body screams fighting to live, but she has been sentenced to a lifetime of silence. Together the three of them start a rather unorthodox game of russian roulette where none of them can win. It is all controlled by a higher power fighting to keep their gaze at the wrong thing.

Killjoy Theatre is proud to present Russian Roulette, a deeply personal, abstract depiction of eating disorders and their relationship to systemic misogyny.

Note: The performance involves audience participation. We will be asking a certain number of people to volunteer and follow some tasks given to them by the cast. Please be mindful if you do offer to volunteer.
