| Summary: | Wilderness is a pulsating documentary theater piece that speaks to our collective search for connection and hope, as families survive the extraordinary pressures and complexities that accompany coming of age in 21st-century America. It is anchored by six real families' stories, narratives that explore issues of mental health, addiction and gender and sexual identity. In Wilderness, adolescents stand at the brink of emotional chaos, lost in social stigma, insecurity, aggression and anger. Parents risk losing their children forever. Thoughts race. Emotions fire. Isolation intensifies. One question emerges. How do we persevere when we feel most alone in the world? |
