About
"Four souls are stuck in a waiting room in the afterlife. Their only connection is that they just tried and failed to take their own lives. They don’t know how they survived, but as time slowly passes they not only begin to yearn to go home but begin to fear that they won't. This fear will manifest into a hunger to live. But despite this insuppressible hunger they are still Marooned.
Is there is something they have to do or address before the gods will send them back?
If so, what?
The only thing they have in this room is each other."
"Marooned: brilliantly written and performed about one of the most taboo life topics - suicide. If not for anything, this profound and confronting play sensitively provides insight into each character's story without prejudice and judgement and allows the audience to be a part of their individual and collective journey. The audience can relate, rejoice, grieve and smile even at times laugh with the cast who so wonderfully portray their characters. Humour is appropriately used to ensure the powerful message, while humility and humanity prevail.
A definite must see - even for the faint hearted. Life is too short and precious. Go see it.
