<DIV>Real live actors will read from the play and deliver a sound production of the work that was inspired by a newspaper article and a "dream" experience during which the playwright was visited by a ghost, respectively! </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In "<STRONG>Moratorium</STRONG>", a young movie company confronts the loss of a 10-year-old girl whose abduction and murder remains a 20-year-old cold case. However, the playful ghost of the girl, MORGAN, helps the individuals with their own resolve while frolicking with them on their set and in real life. Most affected is EDDIE, the film's director, and his fiancee, BELINDA, who together with the ghost pave an ephemeral triangle of love, loss, friendship, and discovery. In creating a film about their spirited friend, will Eddie and his company be able to separate the fictions of their defenses from the realities of their subject matter? </DIV>
