Howling – One woman show in 4 acts with Tasha Paley

Characters on the margins of society.

Tasha embodies a different character in each of the four acts. Her characters are on the margins of society. Her characters are
1. A 96 year old woman in a nursing home,
2. A 22 year old autistic male,
3. A demeaned live-in housekeeper;
4. A fictional, feisty 11 year old girl from a poor town in the south.

The tilte: “Howling” refers to the anguish and yearning each of her characters feels as evidenced by their howling at some point in their act.
The show will be followed by a Q&A where `Tasha invites the audience to ask questions of either herself or any of her characters. If you choose to ask a question of one of her characters she will answer in character.
If you are so inclined, Tasha invites the audience to howl in place of applause.
