FORM OF A GIRL UNKNOWN
by Charly Evon Simpson
World Premiere
Salt Lake Acting Company | 2019
Description
Amali is twelve years old, she is wise, and she is fascinated – by A Midsummer Night’s Dream; by her changing body; by the story of the children killed in the woods. With humor, magic, blood, and fire, this play is not your typical coming-of-age story.

"I consider this show a must see for those who are needing some feel-good comedy in their life or just want to laugh really hard."
"Director Melissa Crespo’s fluid staging complements Amari’s irrepressible energy, and Shoko Kambara’s clever set constantly contracts and expands into cramped bathrooms and vast forests."
"Melissa Crespo (Director) creates a positively magical world. Her vision magnifies the text and is echoed through every character and each design element. "
"Form of a Girl Unknown, directed by Melissa Crespo, has consolidated an impressive start to SLAC’s 49th season. Shoko Kambara’s set is ingeniously constructed to open onto different sets for scenes and eventually into the depths of a forest."
