Lolo battled her lifelong hunger for validation, which only led to frustration, loneliness and depressive episodes. After she died, all of her texts were found in notebooks hidden in the basement of her house: from the fairy tales she wrote at age 7 about princesses who disappoint their parents to the cryptic poems she wrote in the latter part of her life.

MEMOIRS OF A LOLO is a show for those who can’t sleep some nights because they think about the times they were embarrassing in 6th grade. It’s a show for those who have thought for once that everything we do is just because we want to be liked, to be loved.

Duration: 80 min

The performance is the result of a 2-month work lab held last summer, in which the 9 Fresh Start 6th edition residents experimented and explored the methods of devised and performative theater. The idea for the performance was born out of the discussions and exercises that the participants did, and was a collaborative process.

Performance produced within the project “Fresh Start. 6th Edition”, co-financed by the Administration of the National Cultural Fund. The project does not necessarily represent the position of the Administration of the National Cultural Fund.
