Manipulations
September 10 – 19, September 23 – 27, 1992
Arcadian Hall as part of the 1992 Vancouver Fringe Festival, then Firehall Arts Centre
conceived and directed by Chris Gerrard-Pinker

Everyday life goes under a microscope in Manipulations, a rigorous but humorous glimpse into the human condition. The laboratory is life – habitual behavior and the use/abuse of power are the subjects. Watheran, your mystic/physicist host, is relentlessly propelled by his scientific curiosity and a quest to understand the relationship between power and entropy. Who is manipulating whom? When examining the nature of love, no detail is too insignificant to consider.
