“I’m in the bed. The panic has sucked me dry again ’til all that’s left is ta start over. I get that tiredness turn to tight…and I give into the words. I let go. Go.” A young girl trapped by polio in her bed. A father, ashamed of her and her disability, has holed her up in her room as he works in his furniture store. But today he is in the room with her. Why didn’t he go to work? Why doesn’t he want to leave the room? Why does he disturb the one solace his daughter is allowed? Why? From the writer of the highly acclaimed The Walworth Farce.
