I’m on prescription drugs
Living is absorbing. Creating is detoxing.
It’s 3am and I’ve started hearing voices. They’re saying everything I’m thinking and even some things I’m not. I’ve tried to get rid of them but it sounds like they’re not gonna go away until I’ve had a profound epiphany or gone completely insane, whichever comes first.
Enjoy a sprinkle of existential insanity in this fast-paced and humorous theatrical adventure deep into a medicated mind and far out into the chaotic universe.
Duration: 1 hour with no interval
