3x3 is an impromptu adhoc meeting of three minds brought together by a mutual interest in developing shared ideas through generous, imaginative, and uninhibited dialogue (usually involving food).
Toying with chance, choice, control and commitment, the three main players agreed on the rules of the game: 1) to choose a theme on which to write a text, 2) to direct one of the other texts with a performer of ones choice, and 3) to jointly design the scenography. The themes, chosen spontaneously (over coffee, hot chocolate and mint tea), were ‘Sex’, ‘Milk’ and ‘Toy’.
The surprisingly varied nature of the texts was exactly what we had predicted (in hindsight). While ‘Toy’ is a monologue representing a journey through iconic feminine types, ‘Sex’, on the other hand, resembles a lyrically amorous and complex love poem, and ‘Milk’, is an absurdly banal nursing log with moments of insight from a day in the life of a breastfeeding mother.
