Tallahassee

by Kaaron Briscoe

Eight year old Patrick has just lost his grandmother, Helene. Overwhelmed by his heartache, he sets off to bring her home, where she belongs. With his not-so-stuffed teddy bear, Wallace Beary in tow, Patrick journeys to the underworld. Will he make it home before the streetlights come on?
Inspired by the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, "Tallahassee" is an exploration of grief and letting go.

    I loved this play. Wonderful leaps of imagination - that all make sense in this world. Funny. Terrifying. Touching. Satisfying.
