About

After a serious bike accident, a young woman musters up the courage to ask for help. She shares her story, exploring exploring a myriad of themes surrounding human generosity and connection. The audience takes on the role of Siobhan’s close friends through listening, sharing in their experiences, and assisting the cast-clad artist in the actual ritual of taking a bath.
