Menachap, California. An incomprehensible event: every person in the audience of a high school play falls unconscious. Every person but one. Using interviews with witnesses, loved ones, first responders, and the investigators pursuing the case, a theatre ensemble brings the story of the strange event to life, documentary-style. But as the strands weave together into an increasingly dangerous web, it becomes clear that this phenomenon might not be entirely in the past. Unnerving, exhilarating, and wildly inventive, you’ve never walked into anything quite like Trap.

A play based on the testimony of Hungarian survivor Susan Pollack OBE, aged only 13 when she was sent to the notorious Auschwitz-Birkenau in the summer of 1944.
Thwarted in his attempts to hold a street party and unable to shift the over-ordered commemorative plates, Wright does what a poet does best, and takes a deep dive into himself.
