My Father His Son
Yael Owen-Mckenna was invited to work with Beingfrank for a week of research and development and this piece was created out of this research period. Yael wanted to develop a piece which was deeply personal to the performers and drew on a specifically 'male' experience, thus, this work in progress explores notions of the constant pull between boyhood and adulthood, being a son, and memories of a father.
