"A very surreal but emotionally engaging performance."
The consequences of her decision are ephemeral and hard to pin down in the ghostly, shifting world she inhabits. Much of Cristina's time is spent sitting in the sand, hugging her knees, as people around her try to get through to her, invoking past relationships and the emotional cost that her "selfish" decision is inflicting upon them. But since the cast apart from Cristina are all wraiths summoned by her mind, it is impossible to discern reality from fiction and disentangle her own perception of things from what may exist beyond in the world we never see. Cristina In The Cupboard's strange flow and the Depot Theatre's incredible beach set make for a very surreal but emotionally engaging performance.
