About

Lemons is a play in development that explores how social media affects our individual and collective relationship to grief. The play centers on the protagonists obsession with fitness guru Amanda Kloots' instagram account. Amanda lost her husband, Broadway performer Nick Cordero, to COVID in 2020; the protagonist had recently lost her Mom to cancer. Lemons weaves together personal narrative and cultural criticism as the protagonist absorbs Amanda's public grief in the context of the her private one.

Lemons is an examination of female strength, both physical and emotional, as defined by the capitalist patriarchy.  Exploring the intersection of wellness culture/self-care, which is overwhelmingly marketed to women, and capitalism, Lemons looks at how these contradictions have come to inform our relationship to grief, our identities, our bodies, and each other. Dance and movement at times draw out, at times provide counterpoint to the rhythm of the first person narrative.
