Full-length play
2 women, 3 men
Asali is a nine year old physics prodigy who doesn’t want her mom to die. To save her mother Gladys, Asali constructs a time machine that accidentally fractures time. As Gladys’ mental health deteriorates, we see Asali and Gladys create their own universe, filled with the cartoons Asali watches and the phantoms haunting her mom’s time-addled brain. A puppet play about codependency, genius, family and the world parents and children create together over time…time…time…
