An adventurous comedy, one person show by Eliza Gill. A dinner party, The Hobbit, and a house of vengeful house plants leads Witch Hazel down a spiral regarding her identity and if she really is the person that she presents to the world or just an imposter. Hopefully we will laugh along with her as they slide down the rabbit hole of “who am i?” “Witch Hazel: An Anxiety Play" premieres at the Hollywood Fringe Festival 2023 at the Broadwater-Second Stage 6320 Santa Monica Blvd., Los Angeles, CA on June 6, 2023, 6:30 pm.
Witch Hazel is a 27 year old person with an anxiety disorder who avoids their problems by dissociating into fantasy stories from their childhood. As the pressures of the real world increase, we see her struggle to stay in reality until that bubble bursts and she’s forced to reckon with her lack of an overall identity.
Eliza was inspired to write this piece after experiencing a dissociative episode in Berlin last year. She realized that their brain seems to shut off into an autopilot when meeting new people in party settings and was very disturbed by this realization. After writing it down, this notes app monologue grew into “Witch Hazel: An Anxiety Play”.
