 Persona

Persona

Synopsis:
Elizabeth is an actress. One night, in the middle of Elektra, she falls silent. Nervous breakdown? Spiritual crisis? Illness? Attention seeking? No-one can say. She is sent to the seaside to recover. As Elizabeth's silence continues, her nurse Alma begins to speak and Bergman's signature themes kick into life: enigmatic acts of love and kindness, dangerous heights of obsession and need. . .Persona pulls off a remarkable feat: it recreates the famous intimacy of the great Bergman's finest film on a stage. This is a consummate theatrical close-up about our basic human need to be seen and known by another person.

Notes:
Conceived by Adena Jacobs, Dayna Morrissey & Danny Pettingill. A consummate theatrical close-up based on one of Ingmar Bergman's finest films.
