Iso-mandala: Ovid Void (9)


Iso-mandala No. 265

Act III of OVID VOID, in which vain efforts are made by the main characters to reduce things to geometric exactness, almost everything turns to water, and what looks like an explosion might be only a minor after effect. All very Chekhov. Performance notes for Iso-mandala No. 265, herewith. While the audience are led to believe that the explosion is the main event of the Christmas Cracker, your job is to show that the main events are the telling of a series of bad jokes, fitting of paper hats onto large craniums, and how to fix a plastic moustache to your nostrils without pain.
