Yael Rasooly

Every day the lonely and frustrated secretary of a big Hollywood producer remains in the office long after everyone else has gone home. Using photos from old film magazines, she escapes into a larger than life world of daydreams. As a glamorous movie star from the 1940's she finds her ideal love at last and true happiness seems to beckon. But as the story unravels, as imagination and reality collide, her romantic tale becomes a Hitchcockian nightmare!

Yael Rasooly's ingenious, award-winning one woman show transforms the vivid language and style of black and white cinema into a delightful low-tech universe of paper cut-outs and object theatre, creating a poignant tale full of laughter and heartache which has been received with great acclaim at festivals throughout the world.

'One of those artfully quirky solo performances that make the New York International Fringe Festival so worth checking out... Ms Rasooly deftly combines premise and execution' (New York Times)

'When the paper-engineered aspects of production combine with Rasooly's exuberant and comically charged performance, it's tough to not get swept along with her and this production's inspired wackiness' (Theater Mania).
