Vita de Fracta (The Life of the Broken)

The play blurs the line between reality and fantasist dreams as a young girl, known only as Dreamer, lives her life as an isolated observer; reflecting upon the people she watches during the day. Once night falls, however, she bends inwardly to her reality. It is left to the audience’s interpretation the details of this Dreamer’s life, including but not limited to: if these people she sees are connected to her, whether they are strangers, or whether are just a figment of her imagination. In addition to the question of these peoples’ identities that is left to interpretation, the legitimacy of what they say is also left to interpretation: meaning one could suppose to take what they say to be true, or that it is Dreamer’s recollection of what they say and has been warped by her own twisted emotions and state of mind. She is an anti-hero, and yet one discovers her characteristics are strikingly similar to our own.
