Review: REFERENCES TO SALVADOR DALI MAKE ME HOT at Sound Theatre Company

by Amelia Divine · October 7, 2026

Magical realism as a genre offers the potential to portray emotion with the dream-like counter-logic that better explains how an emotion feels, as compared to what a strictly realistic portrayal may be capable of.
