My Life is My Own | 此生,由我 by Cruz Chan | 陳海燕
Clarion Performing Arts Center, 2 Waverly Pl, San Francisco, CA, USTHIS IS NOT A FREE EVENT! GET TICKETS HERE
劇情簡介
《此生,由我》是戲劇治療師與藝術工作者陳海燕創作的一部獨角戲,講述了20世紀80年代中國粵語地區關於性別認同和女性經歷的故事。在那個時代,傳統的父權觀念與中國的一孩政策交織在一起,對女性的生活產生了深遠的影響。這部作品基於她作為家中三個女兒中最小的一個的成長經歷,以及她與她渴望有個兒子的父親之間的關係。
Summary
“My Life is My Own” is a solo performance piece by drama therapist and artist Cruz Chan, about gender identity and the female experience in 1980s Cantonese speaking region in China, where traditionally patriarchal attitudes towards women were compounded by China’s one child policy. It is based on her own experience growing up as the youngest of three daughters, and her relationship with her father who yearned for a son.
