Hoo Ha Jedi Mindf&&k

Hoo Ha Jedi Mindf&&k

Part movement piece, part ritual, and part memoir, “Hoo Ha Jedi Mindf&&k” is a coming-of-age play about a young girl on the precipice of adulthood, whose longstanding secret world of OCD finally comes to light. Embodied by a Statue made of garbage built as an attempt at a senior thesis project, OCD guides our protagonist Sally through her final moments of high-school, overtaking everything from academics, to friendship, to familial love and safety. As we attempt to muddle through these last days of school with Sally, we begin to realize that the secret navigators guiding her through the stormy waters of her life aren’t always what they seem. As everyone in Sally’s world progresses except for her, she stays fast in the promise she made to the Statue to trust that this well-memorized cosmic dance really will pay off. In the end we ask a question: if a secret world provides more answers than the real one, how do you engage with reality? And of course there’s also this – why would you?
