The “Cherry Tortured” is a play where a patchwork family is reunited in their ancestral home about to be repossessed, subsequently revealing a tangled attachment to a place flawed with history and hopelessly human. With this design, I aim to emphasize the presence of clear flawed humanity in a place that is kind of silly and kind of sad. The layered nature of the home represents the patchwork nature of the family and individual, full of history and hundreds of stories. In this way, the house is not a symmetrical perfect thing, but an unsymmetrical, flawed, and patchwork structure created by stories.
