Titan of Abandon

by Caitlin Turnage

Two kids abandoned in a burnt down church navigate the terms of family with an ex preacher and a lot of drugs. However, the daughter is being asked for more than she's willing to give. A show navigating toxic masculinity and the sexualization of women without their permission. It's a play about the touch we have and the touch that's taken away.

    A revealing look inside the toxic culture of masculinity, sexualization of children and the predatory nature of it all. Well done.

    This script will mess you UP. It's like an acid trip on the worst night of your life, and is just dying for a creative director to fully exploit the seedy nature of a black-light, Hot Topic Hobo's pleasure palace. And not to spoil anything, but this play HAS SERIOUS STAKES.

    This play is a kick in the mouth in all the best ways. Turnage unflinchingly tells the story of a razor edged woman clawing her way out of the darkness over the bones of her male keepers. A great, chilling, and powerful read.
