Continuing the formal experiment that marked White Rabbit Red Rabbit, Nassim Soleimanpour brings us ‘Blank’. In a joint effort between audience and performer, the gaps in the script are filled in to reveal a story that celebrates the human imagination. As formally inventive as it is engaging, Blank reverses the typical theatre experience: A script riddled with blanks leaves the audience in charge of how the story will unfold. The concept might be simple, the result is nothing short of empowering, as a random audience member sees his or her future determined by the imagination of others.
