Someone Who'll Watch Over Me by Frank McGuiness tells the tale of three men trapped in a cell in Beirut. They do not understand why they are being held captive, but they do know one thing; they have to try to stay alive. LeMarie takes the audience from laughing at the men and the silly things that they do to pass the time back to the horrid reality of being stuck in a tiny cell with little hope. LeMarie presents the realization that if they do not stick together then they do not have a chance of surviving.
********************************************************** "In the original production of Someone Who'll Watch Over Me the actors had a much tighter space to work in," says LeMarie. "I wanted for them to interact more when they play games and have conversations so I'm giving them more room."
LeMarie says that he wants for the audience to feel as if they are in the cell with the three men and experiencing the same sadness they are. He will have the seating surrounding these men so that everyone can get a different perspective.
LeMarie will combine chains hooked to the men's legs, and dim lighting to add to the eerie sense of reality he wants the audience to feel.
