The play-within-a-play—the mask behind the mask—is the method of choice in this comedy. The production deploys tactics of confusion and absurd situations to call into question the perception of reality for both characters and audience. A central visual and symbolic device is the repeatedly falling upstage wall, underscoring the metaphorical collapse of the supposed reality. The production relies on an ensemble of “Community Players,” consisting of “231 very clothed women,” suggesting a large-scale, possibly participatory or absurdist visual approach. Under Jan Meyer’s artistic direction, slapstick elements are combined with a deeper inquiry into identity and truth.
