Hatch 22

OVERVIEW

  • Playwright

    Neil O'Sullivan 

  • Synopsis

    Hatch 22 revolves around a married couple, Alice and Raymond, and explores their inability to communicate. Raymond, a down on his luck door-to-door salesman, has trying to sell the same dilapidated hoover for years; Alice counts pellets in a packing factory. Initially they find liberation in each other and in their shared journeys; however, they are unable to truly connect through these shared fantasies. A single cataclysmic event dashes all their hopes and throws their problems into sharp relief.
