Follower at Actors Company (The Little Theater)

Sleeping through her days and desperate to feel awake, a young woman with a troubled past becomes fixated on a classmate who seems to exist in a world just beyond her reach. As her observations of him become an archive and fantasy becomes compulsion, Follower unfolds as a darkly comic and unsettling solo show about obsession, loneliness, parasocial attachment—and the stories we tell ourselves to survive.

Follower is written and performed by Katheryn McGaffigan. The show premiered at United Solo Theatre Festival and was further developed for the NYC Fringe Festival, where its final two performances sold out, earning a Sell-Out Award.

“Follower is an experience unlike any other—fascinating, strange, and at times jaw-dropping…worth seeing for yourself. Inventive and bizarre…transgressive.” -Theatre Beyond Broadway

Audience responses have included:

“Meticulously and masterfully made.” “A brilliant piece–the best instance of an unreliable narrator in live theater I’ve ever seen.” “Insane and beautiful.” “A fabulously psychotic and vulnerable show.”
