2014 / Performance, Hamilton
Add Friend
Co-created by Andrew Cromwell & Andrew Gaboury
Performed by Andrew & a friend
Andrew is online. He is on the world’s largest network, has hundreds of friends, access to unlimited information, and yet he still feels incredibly confined. Andrew is searching for a connection in a world where people are more concerned with the password for free wifi.
Using observations and questions and a few key facts, Cromwell successfully articulates an issue that a large number of us deal with on a daily basis yet cannot quite understand.
Gaboury is honest, approachable and governs the tone of the conversation with earnest curiosity. When he breaks into the climactic scene it is pure energy; all physical, and delightfully brings to life his vision of his online self.
