Poetic Justice, or, The Boy Who Cried Wolf

$15.00

Play, 1f 2m (flexible)

Ghostboy is… well, Ghostboy was… Ghostboy is a boy who isn’t, anymore, and Wolf’s the reason why. Poetic Justice... is about trauma: how it is inflicted on us, and how we move forward from it. The two main characters take turns playing each other’s legal representation, while the third acts as a chorus of bystanders. The play asks, How do we forgive ourselves? How do we forgive each other? And should we?
