An IQ137 Cheerio (Work in Progress)

Bilee J • Amateur Company

40 minutes•Cellar
Bilee returns with her unique, gentle, surreal humour! From the East to Edinburgh, she left a global carbon footprint, hopping on random trains of thought. 'Our job is to observe, not to interrupt,' her Oxbridge professor once said, which interrupts here to suggest something lives just behind her gorgeous, sad eyes. An IQ of 137 made her life... her life, clouding her doubts about ways of living. This year, she finally reaches 160. Pounds. As you can tell from this uninvited self-revelation, she is genius, or genuine, or at least gentle. Come chill, cheerio!
