For anyone in Boston, my play with original music, LEFTOVERS, exploring how trauma impacts a family, will be presented as a free reading as part of Fort Point Theatre Channel’s Senses Performance Series (with snacks after!) this Sunday January 27th at 7pm.

This will be the first time that the songs I’ve written for the show will be performed as part of the script, and as always, I’d love any feedback on the piece as a whole.

Patricia, a high school senior, wakes up in a surgical ICU and to find her teenage world forever changed. But even this new medical reality has not erased a secret only her mother knows – Patricia was sexually abused by her voice teacher for months preceding her coma. Forced to come to terms with a past she’s hid from even herself, Patricia struggles with her emotional repairs as doctors work to save her life. The play follows her physical and emotional battle with recovery through 27 surgeries, and the battle to reclaim her voice, from the abuser who took it away.
