Johanna Reed      Faraway Play, 2010, ongoing      next project
View text of play.

A play for three performers in three different locations.

The performers are alone when they perform. Each one documents their performance by recording their voice, then sends their audio file to the next performer. The next performer records his/her voice on top of the audio they received.

In the end, there is one audio file with all three performances layered in chronological order.
