Punish Me is a cinematic play by Michael Dukakis, inspired by true events, in which a screenwriter must outsmart a seductive photographer's escalating narcissism before a web of manipulation costs him his career and his right to stay in the USA. The play explores toxic relationships, narcissism, pathological liars, and con artists, and runs 85 minutes with no intermission. Directed by Monique Sorgen, the cast features Brianna Bell, Jaiden Blessing, Tina D'Marco, Michael Dukakis, Jose Eduardo Moreno, and Anuradha Senevi. The production plays three performances only as part of the 2026 Hollywood Fringe Festival.
