Moving between past and present, the play unfolds through live music performed by the actors, text and physical theatre. Three Oaks depicts a domestic environment off-axis.
The design and the music played on accordion and violin create a sense of place that is constantly shifting. Ladders rising from a floor of pines needles and tilted at precarious angles, allow the audience to view the whole and to look through gaps to focus on the detail. There is the sense of eavesdropping on intimate conversations, of being lulled into a journey of the imagination and then jolted into another reality.
Three Oaks evokes the cultural turmoil of migration but also suggests that new possibilities may be liberated through this journey.
