Why Me? Why not Frank?
Three solos, one issue, a large box sits centre stage glowing from the inside out. We are brought into the lives of three individuals, each to their own but have one thing in common. A problem. We follow as we see each character face the same problem in three different ways. They feel alone as if they could be the only person in the world feeling this way. But, little do they know that two others are simultaneously feeling the same way too.
The rate in which we as New Zealanders can feel alone and cave in on ourselves is staggering. It is something that is all around us, and something I see around me as a Wellingtonian. This show is a way to bring in a sense of reassurance that we are not alone in the boat. We aim to present our audience with an uplifting experience while still bring that message forward. 'Why Me?' is inspired by Alexander Ekman's contemporary show '3 By Ekman'. I saw his show the last two times it was in Wellington with the RNZB and fell in love with his style. With this show, I aim to bring some of that energy into a theatre form and try to capture and share the joy I felt watching it. 'Why Me?' will be performed by separate actors, making this a three-hander show and really showcasing the talent involved.
Georgia Kellett - Director, Deviser, Actor.
Jeremy Hunt - Deviser, Actor.
Bella Petrie - Deviser, Actor.
The three of us have created a strong team environment over the past two years working together. We are ready and excited to bring this work to Fringe Festival.
