Preliminary Sketches, some thoughts
Set
Let's pretend for a moment that we (our stage) is the cube in this pic. Then,, the ladder/stairs are reaching through the mirrors,,, and out into their universes,, THEN, they reach around,, and something crazy happens when they intersect, definetly, but they might just loop around,, and come back around,, "all twins are one twin"... just an idea!
The worlds of each Twins' holds a force that pulls at their babies. The twins are connected upward as much as they are together.
One idea,, for the beginning,, when the good twins make their decent,,
they could come down, as miniature dolls of themselves,, using a mini table as an elevator,, kind of alienesque,, (see the Mariko Mori post for more visuals).Then they appear large, with a trick of lights.
This is the ultimate reponse to the world of the play.. very stretchy in its constant state of flux and change. "Pull them across the sky",, until they are pulled like power lines in the sky reaching far to make close. Power lines like ladders or stairs pulled horizontally. Taking Yayoi Kusama's ladder and flip it sideways..
Delaware says: "the air that seperates us attacks me", after the "Quake" of seperation occurs with Denmark,,
Here is an idea for the set.. as powerlineskies stretch across the stage...
the ladder/stairs are stretchy and can be repositioned into other configurations. The table can slide along, giving room behind it when other characters enter the world.
Costume
Polka dots mirrored with their inversion. Like a yin yang,, "we put some of us in you last time, we were hopping it would grow". Drawstrings shrinking the costumes as the twins change and grow into the next round.
Extremes of clean vs. grotesque.
Magnets, magnetic fabric?! is there such a thing? Or maybe Abram's Zinger character could just move with extensions of costumes making them seem to be stuck to him. I'm going to play with this more. Magnets and paperclips..
playing with the idea that since they are opposite poles, the Twins could have opposing silhouettes. puffy bottoms vs. puffy tops.. something like that.
Research for the Zinger (invisible spirit)
Holograms, silver, armor,, air. Ariel from the Tempest.
Props
Chocolate Tea service
(something to branch off of.. )
