Our Lady of the Home recounts the story of Liza, a housewife of the 1960’s who finds herself troubled by her reality. Perceiving this unease as a mental imbalance -rather than a justified response to her circumstances- she contacts her doctor and begins to take a new, fashionable medication. Through a theatrical-circus vocabulary, performer Alyssa Bunce navigates the connection between inner wellbeing and external conditions, inviting the audience to enter Liza’s inmost room. Blending surrealism, symbolism, humility, and comedy, Our Lady of the Home evokes a captivating and resonant performance that resists stigma, entrances, and celebrates the act of choosing oneself.
