Set within a claustrophobic room of a greeting card factory, four workers create ready-made sentiments for the masses. As each worker navigates their relationship to power, in a world run by an anonymous system, we begin to learn what exists past the four walls: people are being ‘disappeared’ and a resistance of women have been lost …

Inspired by Francis Bacon’s screaming popes, Coleen MacPherson questions the themes of loneliness and complicity in the violence inflicted on others within our rapidly changing world. A dystopian parable that is poetic, violent, darkly humorous and imagistic: an awakening for us all to look deeply into ourselves and the state of our planet.

On March 13th, 2020, Erased was in rehearsals in Toronto when it abruptly stopped due to COVID-19. As we slowly learned the reality we were all facing, that theatres were shutting down and Experiments at La MaMa were going digital (meaning we weren’t coming to New York physically) — we decided to use this moment as a way to experiment across distance; to collaborate across borders when the Canadian and American borders are closed.

Over the past week we have been exploring the medium of zoom and the tiny cameras in our computers.

Entirely shot on Zoom in the confines of our apartment — from Toronto to New York; Charlottesville, Virginia and Los Angeles, we invite you to a play reading experiment, a live screening through La MaMa’s Facebook Page.
