“People don’t change. They just find better ways to hide themselves….”
- Quote from Georgina.
Georgina is a one-woman show performed for a one-person audience. A confessional play about a woman who desperately wants to share a secret with a stranger but doesn’t know how, Georgina takes place in one of the few private places left – the woman’s washroom. Written and directed by Tanya Marquardt, Georgina is performed by Georgina Beatty directed by Ilena Lee Cramer and produced by Chrysalis Theatre in conjunction with the Firehall Arts Centre Festival BC Buds. “rare visual experiences that leave its audience breathless”
- See Magazine, Edmonton
Founded in 2001 by Tanya Marquardt, Chrysalis Theatre is dedicated to creating, producing and touring original theatre and dance works. Fueled by the crossroads of theatre, performance art and dance, Chrysalis Theatre has explored found text, clowning, gender bending, noise music, and site-specific performance, resulting in five full length pieces.
Seating is extremley limited and the show is full of secrets. Come down to BC Buds and share a secret with us as well as take a sneak peek into the workings of Chrysalis Theatre's new work.
