abstractSynopsis:
Staging the conflicts between desire and modesty, this play exhibits women's memory and prospect for love in relationships. The story describes an urban mistress's ritual daily life. Entering her misty bathroom, she is drown in the illusion of sorrowful memories when seeing her own reflection in water and mirror. Under delusion, she begins a dialogue with a man in her bathtub, unfolding her struggle between desire and modesty. Another character appears on stage, changing her clothes in front of the mirror. The reflection seemingly resembles the alternate self of the main character and exhibits a woman's internal struggle in love. At the end of the play, the woman opens the small window in the bathroom, looking at the moon with hopes.Puppets are made of dolls and towels on the rack to represent the woman's memory and imagination. Water reflection resembles the delicate emotions of the character.
