#A deeply emotional exploration of grief, guilt, and culpability

An Oak Tree by Tim Crouch blurs the line between reality and performance, with each show featuring a different volunteer joining a hypnotist onstage. In a deeply emotional exploration of grief, guilt, and culpability, the play exposes the fragile boundaries between truth, illusion, and lived experience.
