Crushed is a performance-based show created and performed by Lachlan Harris Fiesal and Katie Gherasim. The original idea for this show was derived from a class project in early 2023 and since then the two have moulded, shaped, and changed the connection between our two characters until eventually presenting the final product of Crushed. The performance takes place in, around, and outside of a home and shows the non-linear relationship of two partners who are struggling to connect with one another. Through religious metaphor and improvised dialogue, the two characters show us the highs and lows of their relationship from their individual perspectives. You can pick a side if you'd like, but I don't know if you should. Â
