Story Device
A 10 Minute Play
Story device:
"a plot mechanism, or any technique in a narrative used to move the plot forward..."
Characters find themselves experiencing as many story devices that can fit into a 10-minute play with a clever reveal.
“ A meta-twisted meta-tale that is part Beckett and part Pirandello. Highly flexible casting and minimal staging allow for plenty of places to explore Pine's interesting bit of mystery and metaphysics. ”
-Playwright, Dr. Kevin Delin
