DBMOAF: Featuring Victimology and The gun
DBMOAF is a celebration of student-written work, exploring new forms this year. Victimology, which examines the divergence of experiences between a brother and sister years after growing up in an abusive household. The entire show takes place outside of a courtroom as the siblings testify and await the fate of their father and abuser. The Gun introduces a lifeless universe where Fred, who is a writer, and Tom, a clerk, encounter “the assignment,” which involves a handgun and vague instructions to get to the “real paradise,” where “there are fountains and color.” There is only one problem: They must decide which one of them gets there. The final piece of DBMOAF will be large group mime performances, written and workshopped by the cast, which further dives into the questions of family, memory, and universalities in the experience of trauma.
