Woodbine: A Parkdale Haunts Production

This goes out to all the lovers, yearners, and endlessly longing people out there, because what's more romantic than pining from afar? A lot of things, but that's cold comfort when you are trapped and unable to feel the warmth of another...

Everyone is trapped by something. Maybe you're in a house you can't leave, maybe you're in a meeting that never seems to end, and maybe you're stuck in a situation where any good outcome is slipping away, every opportunity to make change is disappearing. For Bea and Grace, their chances of escape are slimming quickly. But it's not just them who are in trouble... So maybe you are trapped in a room, or in an untenable position, or a job you can't leave, or between a ravenous crowd and a broken window. Maybe there is a way out, just not the one you wanted. You can't walk away, you can only escape. You can run. For everyone, the walls are closing in, whether they realize it or not.

Things are shifting, the ground is soft underfoot. You can't trust where you're stepping, and collapse is imminent. But what does it mean to collapse? To fall, to crumple to the ground? To relax against someone, exhausted and needing that weight against you as comfort? To lose something intangible, something you didn't know was so integral to your very ability to stand on your own? To pull away the thing holding an entire place up, just to watch it crumble? Bea, Grace, Hollis, and Lennox are now faced with what it means to collapse. What waits for them on the other side?

Grace has made a deal that she and Bea can't back out of: A return to Emiel under Lennox's endlessly watching eye. Everything is getting too close, everything is starting to strain, and Grace is now returning to the world she thought she had escaped from. Bea is experiencing some real flighty coworkers. And Rhys? Well, he's out there listening to the siren call of the night, the sound of smooth jazz leading him onward onto the rain-slick streets, and taking the chance to make his own fun while left to his own devices...

The only way to keep a secret is to tell no one. The second you tell another person, it's out and it has a life of its own. Grace's secret is carried in Bea, but the shadow it casts is spreading. Lennox knows this and he'll use it to his advantage, she knows that. But he's not the only one who knows, and the shadow grows longer and longer and touches more and more. Oh, and just a reminder that the AGM is coming up, so hope to see you there! You will have to be there. You wouldn't want people talking now, would you?

"Walk a mile in someone else's shoes and you'll understand them better," that's an approximation of the saying, right? Well, what about their socks? And their pants? And their shirt? And their skin? The feeling of their muscles and bones moving in concert, a feeling you understand but is still completely and utterly foreign to you, because they are not yours. What then? Bea and Lennox experience a bit of a shift in their perceptions of the other person, but not in a way you'd expect. And now it's Grace and Rhys's problem. Or, wait, which one are you again? ...

There's something in the distance, just out of sight. There's something whispering to you in the darkness, but you can't make the words out. There's something coming, but you can't seem to make out what it is. The storm is growing and growing and growing, thunder in the distance, a lightning flash on the edge of your vision.

When you look in the mirror, do you like what you see? Do you know who's looking back? A client comes looking for help with a presence in their life that's causing problem after problem. Another client is looking for closure on a chapter of their life that they want to be done. But closure isn't easy, or wanted, or guaranteed. Sometimes you're left picking up the pieces of the mirror, unsure of your own reflection. Is the person that you see the person you want to be?

It's a new day (night, really) and Bea, Grace, and Rhys have a whole new world to face. Bea's coming to terms with an ability she didn't expect or want. Grace has to deal with the full-throated return of the one person she's been trying to keep as far away as possible. Rhys... actually, I'm not sure what Rhys is doing. I'm sure it's fun though. And somewhere, Lennox is waiting. He's waited for so long. What's a few days, weeks, months more when you know that you can finally, finally get what you want?
