         Echolalia         Fountain Lifeguards, The

Echolalia

Synopsis:
Tickled by the social weirdness of autistic children while working with them on a holiday programme, Jen McArthur created a character for the stage who doesn't register social niceties.  I became interested in the strength of the human spirit to overcome obstacles, no matter how eccentric the obstacle, or how eccentric the methods used to overcome them. Jen McArthur. Echolalia uses the forms of clown, physical theatre and dance to present Echo - a young woman preparing for a much needed job interview. This challenge is intensified by the front door, behind which the pressure of social situations awaits.
