All the Ways to Hidey Hole: Madras Parables

By Jenny Magnus and Beau O’Reilly

One of the works in the month’s rotation is Magnus’ and O’Reilly’s All the Ways to Hidey Hole, another entry in their 20+ year long series of duets they call the Madras Parables. Written and performed by Jenny Magnus and Beau O’Reilly, the piece drops in on these two writers’ ongoing collaborations. “The piece is basically about two writers who are ‘simplicitists,'” says Magnus, “who are looking for ways to speak that work aloud, together and apart. We watch them working on the most difficult thing—direct simplicity.”
