	FINAL WEEKEND!

	CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM PRESENTS THE OHIO PREMIERE OF

	TOM AT THE FARM 

	a psycho-sexual thriller 
by Michel Marc Bouchard, translated by Linda Gaboriau

	 

	“Tom at the Farm ... unfolds with blurred boundaries between lust
and brutality, truth and fiction.  It blends psychological-thriller
elements as it moves toward an unsettling plunge into a nightmare of
fear, intolerance and fantasy.” (Roy Berko, _Cleveland Theatre
Reviews_)

	 

	Following the accidental death of his lover, junior ad exec Tom
travels from the city to a remote farm in the country for the funeral.
There he finds a religious family who knows nothing of his existence,
and is blindsided by his dead boyfriend’s legacy of lies. The mother
is expecting a girlfriend, while his late boyfriend’s brother is
obsessed with preserving a facade of “normalcy,” which causes some
awkwardly funny moments when Tom’s gal-pal shows up. However, the
brother’s perverse obsession also brings him to drag Tom into a
twisted and brutal sexually-charged game to strong-arm Tom into
joining in on the lies, until Tom finally confronts the torment that
drove his lover to live in the shadows of deceit.
