Appropriate Behavior

“Appropriate Behavior” is a brand new, intense dramatic play, debuting at The American Theater of Actors. "When you are pushed to the limit, rational decisions don’t come easy." Deena Moreland, a young promising college student now drop-out (unbeknownst to her extremely dysfunctional family) returns home optimistically with surprise news after a mental breakdown following a social media post that accidentally went viral, only to find a much worse situation then when she left. Having to confront her emotionally debilitating parents, her codependent older brother, and her unevolved friends, how will she find her appropriate place in a world filled with not only people who don’t understand HER, but who don’t understand THEMSELVES? The play explores how being raised in an extremely dysfunctional family can have dire consequences on ones life, and how sometimes we must go to extremes to cope and/or heal from the hand dealt to us.
