Self-mutilation is an addiction that affects millions of people. Not everyone can understand its power and control, but Marissa does. A cutter for more than seven years, she had to hit rock bottom before she could claw her way back up. In this stage adaptation written by the late Steve Helsel and Marissa Carney and edited by Marissa Carney and Tara Enedy, the audience explores the mind and soul of a self-mutilator and the love and devotion of family and friends. This reading is designed to allow audience members a chance to discuss the script and provide feedback in a talk back session immediately following the reading. “Stitched” script reading will take place at the ACT Rehearsal Hall at 6:30 pm on October 12th.
