WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Jon Lewis Productions and Rosemary Ponzo present Caged by Joyce Storey, directed by Andrew Hurley, starring Monique Vukovic and Joyce Storey, featuring A. J. Cope.

Sometimes the traps we set for ourselves can be more crippling than the challenges of the outside world. What causes us to create these pitfalls? Why do we choose self-imposed exile? What happens when we get so entrenched in our own snare that we can?t find our way out?

A story of hope, love, betrayal and compulsion, Caged is a tale of emotional bondage. In a world measuring 3 foot by 3 foot, there are infinite options and no options at all. As Connie and Bonnie struggle along the road to escape and redemption, they learn that whether obstacles be literal or metaphorical, stuck is stuck. Oh - and it?s funny, too!

Running time 90 minutes. No intermission.

WHAT ARE CRITICS SAYING?

A woman is trapped in a cage--but not really. The door is open and, if she wanted to escape, she could simply walk out. The cage is more in her mind than anything else. Another woman comes to visit her; she tries to help the first woman and a tentative friendship is forged.

The situation pays tribute to works by Samuel Beckett, among others--particularly, to Waiting for Godot. The action of Caged takes place on both a physical and a metaphorical level, grounded by the dialogue between the two principal characters. They while away the time, thinking of ways for Connie (Monique Vukovic) to escape her cage. They play games, make paper airplanes, argue with each other, and become reconciled. [...]
