Elegy Theatre talk about The Experiment
It’s nearly four years since we first came across Elegy Theatre, with Truth/Reconciliation. Since then they have been busy putting on some amazing work, and are now all set to present The Experiment at Golden Goose Theatre (17 – 21 June).
The Experiment takes us into the lives of Sadie and Will, a couple who are thrilled that their brief experiment with an open relationship has been a success. They worked out rules, discussed possibilities – they even wrote a manifesto. But soon, a stranger comes to Sadie with a disturbing alternate history, forcing her to choose between her identity as a woman and her desire to trust her partner.
We caught up with the team behind this new show; Elegy’s Artistic Director Matt Gouldesbrough, Director Madison Gerringer and writer Serena Berman. It’s a very international affair, with Serena joining all the way from America to chat about her play, why it’s not really a story about open relationships, and how this play has found its way to London for its full world premiere.
