Deep Calls

by Kendra Phillips

A recent arrest for prostitution has put Carson in a safe house with a woman annoyingly insistent that she work through her experiences. Unable to face her life head on, Carson writes a fairy tale journey with a sweet-talking porcupine, smart-ass woodland creatures, and a perilous search for something that was stolen from her years ago.

Deep Calls

Recommended by

  • Rachel Luann Strayer: Deep Calls by Kendra Phillips
    “

    DEEP CALLS is a beautifully-written play about incredibly challenging subjects. I love the use of the fairytale world to help tell Carson’s story, making it surprisingly age-appropriate for practically any audience. The images used by Phillips throughout the play evoke a powerful message, especially the use of clothing and willow trees. Sweet, delicate, lovely, and powerful.
