  The Demon Show

  Chicago, Performance

  “The Demon Show” is a play written and directed by Donna Blue Lachman. This performance was videotaped on May 1, 1986. It portrays the psychological struggles of an artist (Lachman) against her own inner demons. These demons take form in characters representing, for example, Temptation and Self-Contempt. The leitmotif of the film is Lachman’s telephone (it is “broken” as a line of communication to the outside world) and the telephone repair man who “fixes” this communication.
