Provocative monologues
ORGASMO ADULTO
Lion and Unicorn
IT is good to see these monologues performed and Act Provocateur International are to be applauded for taking them on.
Written by controversial Italian playwrights Franca Rame and Dario Fo, these monologues, are about seven women who are oppressed either by society, menfolk, themselves or all of the above.
They are ably co-directed by Scarlett Comnas, who is only 18 and just out of South Hampstead School, and the more experienced Dumle Kogbara, with a relevance and humour that makes this a diverting evening.
The monologues, each performed by a different actress, worked best when the physicality of the character came through. Serena Cowdy as the Whore, Karla Mikenna as the Housewife and Yetunde Oduwole as Medea deserve particular mention.
More attention could have been paid to the set design, which seemed to lack, however. For example, a window exposed to the street, while used, for one monologue, proved distracting and broke the spell of the theatre space.
