a perfect person The text for the work was collaged from hours and hours of recorded conversations where the playwright, Gabel Eiben, had earnest discussions about image, addiction, parenting, social movements, and inevitably, death.

It may fail to have any concrete answers on any of this stuff, but it tries. It tries really hard with mostly funny and maybe some small poignant results.

The piece is autobiographical in its struggle with these big and small trials about being a «perfect» person when it’s a struggle not to eat a whole bag of cookies or lose your temper with your kid.

This theater piece is demanding on the performers as they physically tire themselves while keeping up with the language and calisthenic stage tasks while interacting with a filmed moving background.
