More about the play:



SANZARU

Written by Greg A. Smith

Directed by Erik Andrews

Synopsis: Three strangers wake up locked in an unfamiliar room - one unable
to see, one unable to hear, one unable to speak - with no knowledge of how
they got there. With traditional communication impossible, they must
struggle to find other ways to understand and overcome their bleak
situation; even when doing so begins to reveal some uncomfortable personal
truths.
