Conor and Julian have been together for years. They are enmeshed. They were happy. Now they’re changing, they’re growing, they’re separating. Tonight, they come home from a party and spend the rest of the night entertaining, loving, and torturing each other. Can this really be the end? Or is this just another night?
“Who’s Afraid” is a performance piece and it is installation art. It is discursive and immersive, presented as a single subject which can be experienced from many points of view. “Who’s Afraid” questions the boundaries between truth and fiction, between power and control, between art and subject, between artist and audience. Accessible, grounded in reality, while also indulging in the characters’ fantasies and imaginations. As the relationship between audience and performance is questioned, so too is the role of the audience itself, culminating in new and enveloping way to experience a story, to experience life.
