What are people saying about A ROOM FULL OF MEGAN FOXES? Here are seven quotes from our talkback session:
“Darkly humorous cosmic horror for sure. The horror of both being watched and not being seen.”
“Modern feminine take of NO EXIT.”
“[A ROOM FULL OF MEGAN FOXES] sets the tone for the commodification of these women – they’re consumable, they can be replaced very easily.”
“The name [Megan Fox] as a tactic in the script is conjoining all of these people under the same roof, providing a consistent identity, and seeing how consistent identity breaks apart.”
“I liked that [the Therapist] is selfish. I like that she had her own motivations for what she is doing, and that she knew something that the rest of them didn’t know.”
“Going into the second act, I felt like I was being fu**ed with pretty hard. [...] Psychological horror, here we go. I’ve been to immersive performances before where it’s around you and you’re in the set with them as part of the performance, and it just blew my mind for a minute. There was a bit of THE SHINING-feeling.”
“I love that. All the traditional absurdism in the play, like all the weird stuff happening in the play, I love all that. I think that’s a lot of fun. [...] It was like Ionesco, right, like actual absurdism, which I think is really really cool.”
Thank you so much for attending and being into the play! If you or a theatre you know would be interested in staging this, you may email [email protected] -- all requests will be forwarded to 2025 Playwright Helena Jordan.
