Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Someone Between is a one-woman show based on the life experiences of Chantria Tram, co-founder of Apsara Theatre Company and a first-generation Canadian. After escaping the turmoil of Cambodia in 1986, Chantria Tram and her family found amnesty in a Thai refugee camp. They stayed there for three years before being plunged into the Canadian mosaic. Upon arrival, Tram faced not only the challenges of any child her age, but also those of a new immigrant, adjusting to a new culture while trying to negotiate the demands of her parents who expected her to be their “perfect Cambodian daughter.” Tram uses oral history as the source of her text. The play’s dramatic arc is constructed of short snippets, memories, and stories drawn from interviews and Tram’s own recollections. Someone Between was first performed in May 2009 in Montreal and it was subsequently remounted for Centaur Theatre’s 13th Annual Wildside Theatre Festival in 2010. The play will continue to evolve in 2010, with a creative residency and performance at the Maison de la culture de Notre-Dame-de-Grâce. From there, it will be performed in different venues throughout Canada. This article, consisting of excerpts from interviews conducted with the playwright and performer, Chantria Tram, delves into her creative process, the play’s connection to her family and to her search for identity, as well as the use of oral history performance in creating dialogue between communities and generations.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
