Possession

(Cast: 1f, 1m percussionist)

Badly burned by love, Jane is spending yet another Saturday night at home, reading about her current obsession, possession. But then she hears strange noises, and begins an edgy conversation with a ghostly visitor, who responds only with sounds. In the course of their “conversation”, she is forced to confront why she is possessed by the past, pushed to exorcise her demons and helped to reach in a bizarre way beyond her comfortable room.

Produced at Alumnae Theatre, New Ideas Festival, March, 2005 with Tabitha Keast as Jane and Chris Patheiger as the ghost/percussionist. Director: Molly Thom.
