A Transcriber's Tale
31 JUL - 26 AUG (NOT 12, 19) - 12:00
Welcome to a bustling transcription office in 2001 New York City, where typists are busy listening to – and typing out – raw interviews for pulpy television shows and other mass media. The ultimate eavesdropper in a storm of sound bites, clichés and unexpected confessions, Joanna Parson presents a unique musical monologue that shows you what happens when a young woman with a sense of humour and a guitar tries to keep her sanity and heart intact in the centre of the news cycle. 'I laughed, hummed, and was deeply touched' (Kathryn Markey, Plays For Us).
