EMILY C. WILSON |
Safe as Houses
by Emily C. Wilson The fine line between safety and imprisonment has long since been crossed in this feminine world of doll-like puppets and shadows. An old woman has practically metamorphosed into her rocking chair as she scratches and sucks on regret. An anxious young woman retreats into her own head to an alarming extent and becomes her own Pandora's Box, locked tight by fear. When jealous phantoms of the past intervene, the Box is opened and no one is safe anymore... |
| Emily Wilson is a puppeteer and artist in Brooklyn. Her work uses humor and empathy to tackle social problems and human relationships from an unapologetically feminist perspective. She has worked with Puppetsweat Theater in New Haven, the Forman Brothers Theater/Cabaret Theatre Dromesko in Prague, and the Czechoslovak-American Marionette Theatre in NYC. | |
