  3. MALAGA (or The Inner Ear)


A couple has just split up, between them a child. Vera wants to go to Malaga for the weekend with her new boyfriend; Michael is due at a conference. The only available babysitter is hired quickly, despite countless red flags. Nevertheless, where there’s a will, there’s a way to soothe the voice of conscience. And once catastrophe is welcomed, it will not be governed.

"Ba?rfuss tells stories that are related to our everyday lives but explore wide- ranging themes such as guilt, responsibility, individual fulfillment – funny, tragic, grotesque. Full of unexpected turns. Exciting. Ba?rfuss lets things start off like a piece of conversation and swell to a tragedy of Greek proportions."

- Andreas Klaeui, Frankfurter Rundschau

For directors Lorraine and Álvarez the absent (yet thematically central) little girl becomes the productions’ guiding obsession. This negative space, along with the voyeuristic nature of the text and subject matter invite a dialogue between theater and film, between our ideas of ourselves and what we’re “caught” having done.

MALAGA (or The Inner Ear) is presented to the community FREE OF CHARGE thanks to the FREE THEATRE MOVEMENT. To learn more about the Free Theatre Movement and how you can support free theatre in Chicago, visit http://www.theatre-y.com/free-theatre-movement/
