A Collection of Shiny Objects & Son of Semele Ensemble present the workshop of THE EXILE OF PETIE DELARGE

A New Play by Jennifer Barclay

The Exile of Petie DeLarge is a collaborative experiment in language, performance and music. Telling a story of youthful rebellion, lost innocence and dark moral questions, the text is inspired by three iconic novels, Peter Pan, The Lord of the Flies and A Clockwork Orange. In The Exile of Petie DeLarge, Petie, the expelled leader of a campus coup, and her small gang of renegade students (Borgies and Bessies) violently battle the spirit-kill and corruption of adulthood as personified by their oppressors, the professors (the Bum-Bums). Wendy has fallen to her death in a murder/suicide that Petie and her gang construct an elaborate plot to avenge, while retaking control of their student body (the Rummies). Live sound and recorded music, choreographed movement, and a raw, impulsive performance style using masks and puppeted objects bring this playful yet disturbing text to life.
