Tell the “Doctor” what ails you

Come to me, “Dr” Jessica Ngaio Smith, with something that troubles you. Whether physical, psychological, spiritual or emotional, tell me about your problem and I’ll write you a prescription. Appointments are one-on-one, last 15 minutes and you’ll have 10 minutes to speak. If your words get stuck in your throat, that’s ok, I’ll work with what I see in the stillness and silence.

Magical Prescriptions is an experiment in making ritualistic performance art that is intimate and personalised, giving the audience an experience that is just for them. As someone who has felt greatly dehumanised by my experiences as a patient in the doctor’s office, hospital ward and psychologist’s room, I am interrogating the notion that healing can be given to us by a stranger working in institutionalised paradigms with a strict time limit. As an artist, I have a curiosity and hope that art, along with a reverence for the beautiful mystery of things, might help guide us back towards ourselves. Finally, as a clown, I feel it’s my duty to laugh at how little I, or anyone, can truly have the answers to anything.
