Theater
Written, directed and designed by John Jesurun. Staged in an intimate apartment setting. Jesurun’s cast navigates the clandestine personas of four operatives working from the confines of an anonymous West Village maisonette. They negotiate a verbal and perceptual minefield of enciphered meanings and interpretations that leave them implicated in the dismantling of their own actuality.
