“Conversational, unflinching and delicately layered, Ogawa’s memoir-like excavation tests the boundaries of love and family obligation through intimate confession.” —New York Times
Are we doomed to repeat the mistakes of our parents? Through a series of absurd autobiographical vignettes, innovative playwright, performer, translator, and director Aya Ogawa’s hit Obie Award–winning show irreverently and boldly delves into what it takes to forgive. A trip to Ogawa’s home country of Japan, a child’s nosebleed, and the reality TV show The Bachelor come together in this darkly comical and psychologically insightful theatrical tribute to Ogawa’s father.
Copresented with Theater Mu and The Great Northern.
Part of Out There 2024.
The Nosebleed was copresented by Japan Society and the Chocolate Factory Theater in October 2021. Produced by Lincoln Center Theater, New York, 2022.
