Lila Rose Kaplan’s sharp satirical comedy of motherhood and heroism draws on the tropes of superhero
stories while also subverting them.
The rapid movement and exaggerated style of the script call for an
equally energetic approach to the
environment on
stage. Using a couple of moving units inside of a graphic framework, we crafted a world that could change fluidly
using projections, furniture, and innovative staging.
