About
A one woman show using multimedia components to help character, 16 year old Braidie tell her story as she struggles to deal with her involvement in the bullying of a classmate and decision of what to do next. The audio, visuals, and lighting of this show acted like a supporting character. All the elements helped to establish time and place, and mirrored Braidie’s inner conflict.
Cranbrook Community Theatre's production of A Shape of a Girl had 2 young women playing the role of Braidie on alternating nights.
