Synopsis

A kaleidoscopic dreamscape where the boundaries of time and reality blur

Mrs Fraser, a woman adrift in her own subconscious, finds herself navigating a series of surreal and disjointed dreams. As she drifts through this liminal space, her past and present collide, memories intertwine with fantasies, and the very fabric of her reality seems to unravel. Each dream sequence peels back another layer of Mrs Fraser’s psyche, revealing hidden desires, suppressed fears, and long-forgotten memories.

Gabriel Josipovici’s Dreams of Mrs Fraser is a bold venture into the realm of experimental theatre, challenging conventional narrative structures and audience expectations. Dreams of Mrs Fraser stands as a testament to Josipovici’s avant-garde sensibilities, offering a thought-provoking meditation on the nature of identity, the malleability of memory, and the eternal human quest for meaning in a chaotic and often incomprehensible world.
