Just a few more stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“…This is fabulous theatre, brilliantly rehearsed and performed, bringing a classic text to stage in a fashion which will encourage the attention and thoughts of a whole new generation. It’s bold, sexy, scary and serious, and it’s the level of credible accomplishment that all companies should dream of bringing to the Festival stage.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ — British Theatre Guide

“This is a bold adaptation. The setting remains rooted in its original period, but the staging introduces a strikingly modern interpretation – ranging from the use of sound to dynamic dance movement and transitions. The mood, established from the outset by the haunting strains of Billie Eilish’s “Bury A Friend”, never lets up.

The narrative is both punctuated and driven by an ensemble of three characters, seemingly a manifestation of Jane’s inner thoughts and emotions – frustration, fury, hurt, and so much more. By turns, they dance, move, and react to events unfolding in the room. Yet, it is those moments of stillness that Jane is most exposed – defensive, introspective, seething rage, but always vulnerable.

This directorial choice [by @caitlingort ] makes for a breathtaking and innovative spectacle, the pace relentless, juxtaposing with - and somehow belying - the static confines of the attic bedroom. The quite excellent ensemble (@megan.ort, @oliviahelaine, @mymusialmylife, @clairevanbever, @morganblanchard, and @palomadauria) bring a visceral physicality to the production, with Ort consistently catching the eye as Jane.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ — Rialto Arts

““The Ort sisters’ The Yellow Wallpaper is an absurd and mesmerising adaptation of a seminal feminist text that had me completely absorbed in the room of yellow wallpaper with Jane. The performance invites conversation about the text’s original message as medical misogyny persists and women’s bodily autonomy remains contested today.
I would highly recommend this show to fans of the original text or anyone who likes the sound of a visceral, genre-bending experience infused with horror and female rage.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ — For the Plot

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from @thesmureviews!

“What elevates this beyond a straightforward period piece is how it reaches into the present; the production is at its strongest when it balances the two kinds of imprisonment Gilman writes about: the literal barred nursery and the prison of the narrator’s own mind, each feeding the other in a cycle of self-fulfilling prophecy. The history of women being institutionalised, ‘rest-cured’ and disbelieved sits at the story’s core. Gilman herself drew on her own treatment under a leading nerve specialist of the era to write it, and while the production itself makes no such nods, I couldn’t help thinking of Britney Spears’ conservatorship, the ongoing conversations around medical paternalism and the ways in which contemporary ‘wellness’ can be performed and imposed.

By its end, this is not just a ghost story about a woman losing her mind in a locked room; it’s a gripping and emotional hour of dance-theatre that suggests the ‘hysteria’ diagnosis and the impulse to silence women deemed too much never really left. Hauntingly staged, sharply danced, and quietly furious underneath: highly recommended.”

Baby’s first Fringe was a hit!! I saw so many amazing shows and performers and we all made fools of ourselves on the street but didn’t care and somehow put on dare I say a pretty darn good show!

I’m back in NY but there is still one more week to catch the rest of the cast of @theyellowwallpaperplay at Edinburgh Fringe!
