MASS VENTRILOQUISM was performed on May 13th, 2010 at 12pm inside of the Malm Whale at Göteborg’s Natural History Museum. This hollow taxidermied whale, which is normally kept closed, was opened for 15 women to go inside and read the play to the public. A special handmade paper version of the play, made by Julia Goodman, was on display and available to read from.
For the above video I met with female representatives from The Professional Women’s Group, Stadsbiblioteket, Alvrümmett, The American Women’s Club, Världskulturmuseet, Röda Sten, Göteborgs Folkhögskola, Göteborgs Konserthuset, Göteborgs Stadsmuseum, Göteborgs Naturhistoriska Museum and more. I specifically chose these 15 different women to read the play because, like Carolina, they interact with the public on a daily basis.
