Crave
Kane’s Crave is a one act play following a chorus of four unnamed voices. The characters exist in a kind of cognitive limbo without concrete spatio-temporal context or narrative. They talk in circles with varying awareness of one another recounting memories, dreams, desires and dark secrets. M the childless Mother, A the lovesick and twisted abuser, B the boy; the addict and C the unhealed child are four broken representatives of humanity. They find themselves stuck in a space between heaven and hell: collateral damage of the human world. Crave follows their struggle to relate to one another and stumble toward redemption.
Content Warnings: This play contains several dark tehmes, presented as issues haunting the four characters. These include mentions of rapse, incest, pedophilia, anorexia, drug addiction, mental instability, murder, suicide, and two depictions of sexual harrassment/assault.
