Attempts On Her Life is absurd, witty, abstract, and deeply concerned with the ways in which we perform our identity to the world (and the truths contained within the lie). The actors begin in their own rehearsal clothes, as they seek to find 'Anne' through a series of vignettes. Finally immersing themselves fully in the process nearly 2/3 of the way through, they emerge once again as jewel toned caricatures of themselves, ready to perform for the audience, each other, and maybe even Anne, if they ever find her...

Wigs were pulled from my own personal collection, fully deconstructed, & rebuilt using foam under-structures & adhesives to create bold, larger than life shapes. Jewel toned pieces were either constructed or heavily altered, and rehearsal looks were created from the actors' personal pieces. Vignette pieces were pulled, with the exception of Carson's 'Alien' helmet, which was constructed from a colander & various found objects.
