The Arms
10 Jun - 14 JunLife finds a way of making us confront our opposites—but what if your opposite lives next door?
Domi has been making extra arms so she can help people all over the world. She’s become a local hero and everyone is calling her the “eight- armed woman”! But Sora, Domi’s next door neighbor is suspicious… and starts spying on Domi, determined to prove that she’s a threat to their community.
‘The Arms’ is a two-woman show about coexistence. The opposing viewpoints of two women are exposed in the show as they double down on their incompatible approaches to doing good for their community. The set and costumes in ‘The Arms’ are made from recycled and compostable materials.
The show will start with a short housewarming talk and will end with a brief Q&A.

“I still had two arms, two hands and ten fingers. I was just the same person. I was devastated.
What’s wrong with me? Why do I have only two arms? Why am I so tiny and useless?”
