When Lois McElravy performed for my University of Montana graduate seminar, Performance Theory and Criticism the class was astonished. Via her character’s Louis and Louise, Lois discussed important life issues including disability, grief, work and family. The fourth wall that typically separates the performer and the audience immediately disappeared when Lois took to the stage, and the class and performer communicated together. Lois’s solo performance is sharp, innovative, and riveting. She is a treat to behold!
