Sweet, vapid, and venomous, Pochsy is an eerily charming embodiment of all that’s gone bats in the world. She used to work at Mercury Packers. Where she packed mercury. Now her employer has moved offshore and Pochsy must grapple with God’s broken promise of a five-star future. This is a night sea journey on an unnaturally sparkling river. Harrowing and high speed, Pochsy IV unboxes precarity, consumer obsessions, and the future of humankind.
Combining such disparate elements as magical realism, satire and horror, this monologue follows the award-winning trilogy The Pochsy Plays, which have travelled internationally. But you do not need to have read them to grasp Pochsy IV. Pochsy can’t remember that far back – why should you?
Written and performed by Karen Hines and directed by Blake Brooker.
