Pre I Am My Own Wife

I am throughly excited for the performance of I Am My Own Wife at The Long Wharf Theater. After reading the review and watching the video I have a much better understanding of what the show is about. I think that the subject of this show is incredibly interesting especially between tying the difficult subjects of transgenderism and Nazi Germany. The time period it takes place in is a very difficult time for people part of the lgbtq community so it will be interesting to see how she is portrayed. I am also very curious about the way the show is being done by only one person. The concept of doing a show that has over 30 roles as a solo act seems very stressful and rushed. I hope that the show does not become a stressful experience because of all the rushing to change from one character to another. I wonder if tech and set will play a big role in this show because not as much of the setting can come from the characters. I am over all very excited to see what Long Wharf has done with this production especially because in the past productions of this play have not been very highly rated or as successful. This is something I am looking forward to a lot and I hope that it is a successful production just because it's such a difficult show to do.
