Today is the two-year anniversary of Fiona’s son’s disappearance, and as she delves back into her memories of that fateful day to uncover that crucial missing piece, grief and comedy collide, and ordinary turns of phrase take on dangerous new meanings. In this production, I designed a space which is capable of switching back and forth between Fiona’s reality, and her warped memory (shown through shadow puppetry) in an effort to highlight the disconnect that she experiences, and ultimately resolves.
