THE COMICAL TRAGEDY
A COMEDY ABOUT ALL OF US
An actress and her part must perform an important scene together. But not everything goes as planned. The actress is overwhelmed with anxiety and the part must take over. The part realises that it quit likes the spotlight and the actress must fight to reclaim the stage and stand up for herself. Maybe that was the parts plan all along?
The Comical Tragedy is about the fear of failing and the road toward daring to do what you really dream about.
It is a story about becoming oneself and listen to that little voice inside that sometimes speaks the truth.
