Victory Lap
is a semi-autobiographical one-person show by Mashaka Gunnulson that gently and
sensitively explores mental health and suicide with a nostalgic look at
friendships gone by, and what saying goodbye feels like.This is a meditative tale where not much happens on stage but plenty takes place in our minds through Gunnulson's descriptive language and the vivid imagery it conjures. One particular scene where a character is visiting a morgue paints a highly detailed picture of what is being seen, heard and smelt. Their direction of Adam Marks as Billy is minimal yet considered as it allows the performance to be in tune with the tone of the story.
