Two plays exploring the pain of living and the difficulty of dying by
a sensational new writer Juniper's Whitening "Tell me this - is it
true that if you make someone die, and they come out the other side,
it doesn't matter? I'm sure something clung to Lazarus. Something
must've shone through him." In Aleph, Beth and Juniper's nightmare
house, kindness is entrapment, and resurrection is a weapon. Aleph
love/hates Beth, Beth love/hates Aleph, and all Juniper knows is that
Beth can't seem to stop being murdered. One thing above all: none of
them must look out of the window. Victimese "I was thinking, Eve, that
you need to touch bottom - just so you know you can do it. So you know
it's not that difficult; so you know that you don't have to tunnel
far; so you know that you're not that actually as deep as you think
you are." Eve is unable to leave her student room but unable to bear
staying in it. In harming herself she hopes to demonstrate her courage
and independence to both herself and her friends. But her sister's
arrival and need for her friendship forces her to face painful truths
and to examine whether it is possible to temper emotional courage with
the humanity to give and ask for aid.
