Trouble Deaf Heaven—New Art City Theatre: Festival 25—A “New Works” playwright’s festival
Trouble Deaf Heaven is a play about cruelty, mercy, and one woman’s struggle for autonomy over her body and future. Set in England in 1877, this gothic nightmare follows a young woman named Mary Amelia, a domestic worker employed by a doctor and his wife. As Mary learns more about the family she works for, she uncovers startling secrets that lead her on a journey to take back her power at all cost.
