Support
a site specific play
In a crappy, overused conference room five women meet weekly for their domestic violence support group with their inept facilitator, KC, who really wants to help with her empty resume and dearth of personal experience. It’s only a matter of time before someone in the group asks “is this really all we deserve?”
Support follows the eight week journey of a group of survivors who all want to heal but are conflicted about how to make that happen,and what healing really looks like anyway? When a male actor is brought in to help them reflect on the past, some start to question how to make the future different as they ask if there really is a way to make ripples beyond their consolation prize support group.
