Iris
IRIS hits Cincinnati--like a meteor!!!
When you enter the world of
IRIS you expose yourself to a semi-surrealistic universe
where taboos are not only accepted--but are a way of
life. Nothing is sacred in this crazy comedy of no-no’s.
Iris, age 25, is a child of artificial insemination
and the play opens as she is about to have her very
first encounter with her biological father, Nick, age
40. They meet. They chat. They spar. They delve. They
probe. They drink scotch and cider. They kiss. They
kiss? They kiss.
Confounded and confused by her unorthodox attraction
to Nick, Iris visits her ultra-unorthodox therapist,
Hallie. They analyze. They assess. They dish. They shop.
They buy shoes.
Nick and Iris have sex.
And that’s just the beginning...
IRIS is wild comedy at it’s wackiest. It never
shies away from pointedly provocative themes and never
compromises it’s decidedly unconventional, but
lovable gaggle of misfit characters.
IRIS was produced in the Spring of 2005 in Cincinnati,
Ohio by the Know Theatre Tribe and directed by maverick
Jason Bruffy.
