In a world where dreams and reality blur, Wake Walking invites audiences into a haunting, poetic journey of grief, identity, and love. Marianne Warner, fragile yet determined, finds herself adrift after the loss of her twin sister, Emily. As she prepares for a mysterious trip to Venice with her enigmatic husband, Tom, Marianne navigates a labyrinth of surreal encounters—grief counselors with dreamcatchers, clerks who question her identity, and shadowy figures who linger at the edges of her reality.
Set against a backdrop of rising waters, fractured memories, and the haunting beauty of Venice, Wake Walking explores the ties that bind us to those we’ve lost and the elusive nature of self-discovery. Through sharp dialogue, dreamlike imagery, and a deeply emotional undercurrent, Tommy Trull’s play asks: How do we move forward when the past refuses to let us go?
Equal parts tragic and transcendent, Wake Walking is a must-read for fans of intimate, character-driven drama that lingers long after the curtain falls.
For readers of Tennessee Williams, Sarah Ruhl, and anyone who believes the most powerful stories live in the space between waking and dreaming.
