'The Yellow Wallpaper' at La Mama

“It is the strangest yellow, that wall-paper! It makes me think of all the yellow things I ever saw – not beautiful ones like buttercups, but old foul, bad yellow things … It is like a bad dream. It creeps all over the house.” A recuperating woman, a misguided husband, a hideously papered bedroom. The Yellow Wallpaper is a gothically-patterned study of the fine line between madness and liberation.
