Nanna was born with horns in her forehead but had them removed when she was still a baby. Now she’s a teenager with a very low self-esteem. She is convinced that something is wrong with her. She’s isolating herself and cutting herself in secret – her friend, Astrid, is the only person who knows about it and she tries to convince Nanna to tell her mother. But it is difficult since Nanna’s mother is mostly concerned about keeping up appearances and Nanna’s forthcoming confirmation.
In CUT //, time is cut just like Nanna’s body. This acclaimed play is a well working portrait of the taboo, the loneliness, and the sometimes-exaggerated self-awareness that many teens struggle with.
