I'm Free Now: A Solo Show of My Own Design

Abstract

I spent a great deal of time these past three years in the University of Washington Professional Actor Training Program waiting for someone, or something, to give me permission to make choices that align with my integrity. This script explores my journey of searching desperately for safety, stability and a sense of self in all the wrong places—and in my twists and turns along the dusty road, I discover that I am the hero I was waiting for, not the institution, or a boyfriend, or a role in a play, but me.
