Miranda

By: Lupine Performance Cooperative
  • Summary

  • In overlapping timelines, Miranda and her son Grayson caretake for a motel amidst a startling gravitational anomaly. Mei and Hal are stuck at the motel after their car breaks down, with nothing to distract them from their neuroses and self-sabotaging. Something weird is going on. Laws of physics and imbalances in the gravitational system begin to unravel, leaving us unclear about what is real, and what is just in our heads. An audio play enjoyed in chunks or all at once. Best for long road trips, when you have to fold your laundry, or you're in a spooky mood.
