“Freeze Frame…brought together women in a way that both dramatized the commonality of their experience and subtly, poignantly, underlined the ways in which women are bent and broken. There was careful artistry in the arrangement and presentation of these varied lives, but restraining from sloganeering, hectoring, or false ironies too….The ground rules were deceivingly plain. Moving through the loftily artificial world of a state of the art showroom, one silently eavesdropped on women grouped together in various (furniture settings); toney business women at a board room table, elderly Jews on a sectional couch, mothers, mental patients, prostitutes. The groupings were wry: Lacy was playing with the labels women are assigned. Their intentionally ambiguous topic—survival—drew out a range of self-notions that kept glinting off each other like so many mirrors. Two women from different social and economic worlds might be discussing their mothers at the same moment across the room, and the way they were speaking, they might have come from the same womb. Lacy achieved what many theatrical directors only dream of: a sense of life’s profusion filtered by an artistic vision of it.” Steven Winn, San Francisco Chronicle.
