Ramshackle Theatre & Nakai Theatre presents
Broken
Written & Performed by: Brian Fidler
Directed by: Graham Percy
Workshop presentation at Nakai Theatre’s Pivot Festival
January 26th and 27th at the Old Firehall
In this one-man show about memory, photography and broken objects Brian Fidler plays the roles of Grandfather and grandson using puppetry, innovative staging and musical montages.
Grandpa Ken was a World War II photographer. William, his 9 year old grandson, is committing his Grandpa’s photographic slideshows to memory. Time shifts and memory slams against reality as Grandpa begins to unravel from the story of his own life.
William’s attempts to help his Grandpa go awry with tragic consequences.
