It is almost as though Lotte falls into a rabbit-hole, only to emerge in a wreckage of smoke and mirrors. The reality of the play is disorienting, and solid ground exists only in the characters’ personal sufferings. The eerie presence of dolls furthers this surreal effect. The play flirts shamelessly with the line between doll and human...
