“I am not okay but that doesn’t make me broken”
College sophomore Alex tries to sort through the reemergence of an old trauma as she spends time with middle school friends, revisits former stomping grounds, and with help from her therapist, finds the words for what happened to her in seventh grade.
Join the Young Professionals Company at OCT for this thoughtful and empowering journey through self-reflection and healing, streaming on-demand May 20—31, 2021.
“Throughout the play, the feelings of shame, discomfort, and paranoia are visceral and perturbing as we watch Alex striving to work through her fears, accept the trauma, and learn to let go.” —The Sophie Fund
