City Garage at Bergamot Station, Building T1 (Santa Monica, CA)
From Maria Irene Fornes — the celebrated, award-winning playwright known for works like Fefe and Her Friends and Letters From Cuba — comes this frightening and fragmentary examination of the power play between torturer and victim. Orlando, a military officer riddled with bitterness over his low rank, unsatisfying marriage and ungovernable sex drive, is determined to rise within his regime. This ambition finds him addicted to the dirty work of interrogation and torture, eventually abducting a young homeless girl to meet his mounting desires. Hidden away in a basement, this girl becomes the victim of Orlando’s sexual satisfaction — psychologically and physically punished by a man who is rapidly becoming a monster. Certainly not for the faint of heart, The Conduct of Life is a chilling tale of torture and, somehow, love.
