The Hoodie Play

In the moments after being shot, Darren reflects upon his life, his spiritual path and his connection to a diverse collective consciousness.  
Four characters, who appear isolated from one another, puncture the guise of their seeming differences.  This highly stylized one-act play
uses monologue, physical activity, shared language and eventually, character interaction to explore the diverse social and cultural impact
of a piece of clothing – the hoodie.  Juxtaposed against this backdrop is the unity of their collective emotion.  But are they really separate
people or simply aspects of Darren? 

This project sculpted the development prototype for Voire Dire.
"Every human has something they struggle with and something they struggle to understand. And every human has something that they find security in. At the heart of it all, that’s what this play is about. Injustice, connectedness, and security."
