Fuddy Meers: Bizzare theatre at its best
If you are looking for an evening of bizarre theatre, in the best sense of that phrase, have I got a recommendation for you! Go see “Fuddy Meers,” currently being presented in the Bartlett Theatre on the Fredonia State campus. The play, by David Lindsay-Abaire, explores questions about memory, language, and the ways in which we construct reality, and it does so with humor and affection. Of course, discussions about how we construct reality also get us into the realm of the unreal, which is how the bizarre enters the play. The play is about a woman who suffers from a form of amnesia that requires her to depend on those around her for her understanding of who she is, but none of those around her are fully trustworthy, so neither she nor the audience can be sure of who she is. The one character who does seem trustworthy has recently had a stroke, so that her ability to use language is severely impaired.
