Toronto-based playwright Hannah Moscovitch\u2019s play In this World<\/em> was produced as part of Supernova Next<\/strong><\/span> this past weekend, a program of events for youth and families produced in partnership between Halifax Theatre For Young People<\/a> and Eastern Front Theatre<\/a>. In This World<\/em>, a Halifax Theatre For Young People\u2019s production, was first mounted at Alderney Landing Theatre <\/a>back in the Fall. I wish the remounted run had been longer because this is a play that I think a lot of Junior and Senior High students would really enjoy.<\/p>\n

In This World<\/em> finds two former friends, Bijou, a spoiled, self righteous Caucasian daughter of privilege and Neyssa, a worldlier Jamaican-born Dartmouthian of working class, waiting in a small room in their private school to be punished for a physical altercation that has left Bijou with a bloody lip. Throughout the next sixty minutes the girls delve deep and unapologetically into issues of race, class and sexual assault as the truth behind Neyssa\u2019s hurt and anger toward Bijou slowly unravels.<\/p>\n

What I love so much about the way that Hannah Moscovitch has crafted this play is that she has written a play about<\/em> teenagers rather than trying to write a play for<\/em> them. Here, Moscovitch encourages her audience, regardless of their age, to raise complex questions about pertinent issues in contemporary society and doesn\u2019t suggest that there are easy and universal answers. Instead of telling people what they should be doing, Moscovitch asks her audiences to consider what their own individual response to the situation would be and to try and look at this moment on stage from the perspective of Neyssa as well as Bijou. Instead of pitting the girls and their points of view against one another In This World<\/em> encourages empathy for both of them.<\/p>\n

I also love how Moscovitch stays so true to the logic of her teenaged characters, whose opinions on these complicated subjects can be simultaneously forceful yet uncertain. She weaves racist and classist comments into Bijou\u2019s tirade against Neyssa as part of her struggle for dominance in a way that feels so naive but also so disturbing. It reminded me of an article I read not too long ago<\/a> about \u201chipster racism,\u201d the idea that because we, as a society have \u201cmoved past racism,\u201d that it is okay and fair to be racist in an ironic way because the playing field has been levelled. Bijou compares being called a slut with calling Neyssa the N-word (a word she can\u2019t even bring herself to say), as though because they both attend the same private school that somehow everything and anything insulting is fair game. Throughout the play this image that Bijou has shatters completely, but Moscovitch has hit on this absurd concept so perceptively and compellingly, that comes from the privileged mind set, \u201cSince my ancestors have fought for our Civil Rights, they have given me the freedom to say and do whatever I want and have it be okay because you can say and do whatever you want too.\u201d She even pits feminism against racism here, but all from the points of view of two girls whose opinions on these subjects are still entirely malleable and as yet uninformed.<\/p>\n

Tessa Mendel directs this production in a seemingly simple way, there is a minimalist set and limited movement, which really feeds into the intensity of these two forceful girls exploding with emotion being contained within a very small space, in a school where they cannot get too loud. The potential for Neyssa to explode is always present, which adds a lovely tension to the play.<\/p>\n

Kristin Slaney plays Bijou reminiscent of Molly Ringwald\u2019s character in The Breakfast Club<\/a><\/em>, she carries herself with an air of propriety and expresses her anger more in haughtiness and contempt than in any pure or honest emotion. She is a little devious, a little manipulative, always trying to worm her way out of taking responsibility, she pretends she doesn\u2019t care about things that are clearly eating her up inside and deep down she is obviously a very scared and very vulnerable little girl. Slaney is terrific at throwing all these aspects into her performance in a very subtle way. Her vocal timbre throughout the show is quite high and airy, which I loved at the beginning because it evoked the airs that she was putting on and also the anxiety of her situation, but I would have liked to have seen her voice become lower and more grounded as the play progressed so that we got the sense of at least some release for Bijou of the bright facade that she presents.<\/p>\n

Helena Pipe plays Neyssa and she is absolutely incredible. She has just the right mixture of attitude and vulnerability, passive aggressiveness and poignant emotion, that the audience becomes immediately hooked and invested in uncovering the truth of her journey. Pipe performs this emotionally ravaged character as though it were the easiest thing in the world to do and there were not a bit of acting involved. She makes this production soar. I want to see much, much more of her in the theatre in this city in the future because I think she could do anything and be brilliant. Write her name down, folks: Helena Pipe<\/strong>; you won\u2019t want to forget it!<\/p>\n

In all, In This World<\/em> doesn\u2019t let its intense subject matter outshine the relationship, which is at the heart of this story, between Bijou and Neyssa. As their intimacy and trust in one another grows we are given a glimpse of the answer, which sounds so simple and yet is extremely difficult, that just being there and connecting to one another is sometimes the best we can do. That is what the theatre seeks to do and this play does it beautifully.<\/p>\n
