Really Really
WRITTEN BY PAUL DOWNS COLAIZZO
DIRECTED BY REILLY JOHNSON & MEGHAN MULCAHY
I did the fight and intimacy coordinating for this production. The play centers around a very serious and sensitive topic. I feel very lucky to have helped create a safe environment so we could find joy and play while working on these violent movement scenes.
Really Really tracks the events of one wild party and its massive repercussions for one group of friends.
Who is telling the truth? Who is at fault? Colaizzo isn’t interested in easy answers. Really Really is adept at shifting the balance, and does so repeatedly. Once the audience feels sure that they understand the moral landscape, it changes again, settling into an uneasy and complicated shade of gray.
This production of Really, Really was first performed at the Gibney Dance Center and reinstated at the Hudson Summer Festival.
