Rachael Carnes: Alice, Pursued by a Bear

A beautifully-crafted exploration of an increasingly relatable experience: Navigating life with the shadow of anxiety clinging closer each day. Haas tempers her protagonist's fears with a no-nonsense humanity. We care about 'Alice' and in the subtleties and sympathies within the piece, we see how we might overcome our obstacles, too. A play at once alive, engagingly theatrical, and internally resonant. It's the kind of poetry that soothes even from reading. Do yourself a favor, and read this play.
