Iso-mandala: Ovid Void (8)


Iso-mandala No. 264

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. Here are the performance notes for Iso-mandala No. 264. While half the cast is going through mood swings that are Ocean Vapour Ice and Downpour, the other half are doing Vapour Ocean Ice Downpour. This gives the audience the impression that everything has coalesced, or even reached harmony. Your job is basically to keep to the script and not burst into tears.
