Brothers Joe and Dan go out for a night on the town. Only one comes back: 18 year old Dan is fatally stabbed by Emma, a drug addict. His family falls apart. The father, John, takes up whiskey and jogging, and Joe believes his parents wish it was he who had died, rather than Dan. Meanwhile, the boys’ mother, Mary, feels as though Emma (now imprisoned) has taken up residence in their lives, a malignant squatter whose ghostly presence cripples them. Her determination to understand the atrocity brings her to enlist the help of psychologist, Elizabeth, and to come face to face with Dan’s killer, forcing the family to confront the bitter senselessness of their loss.
This play was written in collaboration with the UK Charity, The Forgiveness Project, to critical acclaim. It is directed by Nadine Beasley.
