Elevated horror meets Arthurian fairytale

"You're afraid to sleep. You're afraid to speak. You're afraid to be a disappointment. How could the deep, dark woods be worse than that?"

A man awakens deep in the woods with an axe beside him, a priceless string of pearls around his neck and no memory of who he is or how he got there. In his search for answers he encounters strangers who say they are his friends, but can they be trusted?

Over the course of a single night he pieces the scant evidence of his past together. The more he uncovers the more he must ask himself if some memories are better left buried.

Twisted Violet is a genre-smashing, watch-from-behind-your-hands one act play, blending elevator horror, Arthurian fairytale, and a pinch of Lynch.
