The Storeroom - T1935819502 The Storeroom, a dark, comic physical tale played to a mesmerising soundtrack. It is a moving jigsaw and a stylish thriller. From child to cabaret to convict; this sinister montage of contemporary theatrical styles it bewitches from start to finish. It’s a one woman show that tells a tragic story of lust, violence and flawed dreams, all from a dark, deserted storeroom. The sound design and set add another layer to this mysterious piece as old boxes become cells, become doorways. Become a playground full of passionate adventures and eerie confessions. Live and recorded voices muddle to enhance the melodramatic account of this disturbed woman’s life. Suspended from a ladder she hypnotises with control and prowess. Revenge is a cold dance. She’s dressed to kill and ready to sing. The answer is in The Storeroom, if only she can make the pieces fit. Seen through the eyes of a dazzling dancer, reality and fantasy collide as she tries to unlock the secret of her mysterious past.
