PLAY SYNOPSIS:
When a disillusioned man struggling with mental health contemplates death by suicide, a chance encounter from a young neighbor in need catapults him into a crucifixion of ego.
What begins as a simmering direct address progressively breaks into a medium-expanding thrill ride of dynamic sensory awareness.
Our narrator experiences a glimpse of paradise, and a hell of his own creation both of which redefine this ridiculous man’s journey forever.
