Mrs. Harrison
Written by R. Eric Thomas
Directed by Jeff Grace
At their 10-year college reunion, Aisha and Holly meet by chance. Is this the first time, or has it just been a long time? They can’t agree. Aisha is a black, successful playwright (she’s on the cover of the alumni magazine). Holly is a white, struggling stand-up comedian (she’s here for the free drinks). Aisha’s most successful play bears a striking resemblance to a tragic event in Holly’s life. Is it a coincidence or is it theft? Their confrontation provokes questions about ownership and memory by asking: Does one simply own a story for having experienced it, or must one truly understand it?
