Incarnate by Parker Davis Gray
Second Thought Theatre
DIRECTOR
Trapped in her cell, Rosamund is hellbent on escaping her fate while the Man who kidnapped her struggles with the consequences of what grief can do, and how far he will go to escape it. Can they live with themselves? Or, more importantly, who else is living with them? A horror/thriller that follows two artists over the course of a year in their seemingly pointless pursuit of creation while suffering under great grief.

“…a dark, unsettling psychological thriller directed with maximum visceral intensity by Jenna Burnett.” – Doug Sturdivant, DFW CENTER STAGE
“Director Jenna Burnett, joined by assistant director Rodrigo Caraveo, shapes the piece with quiet dread. Together they turn Gray’s script into a slow-building psychological horror… – Rickey Wax, ONSTAGE NTX
“Gray and director Jenna Burnett with a cast of two created a pervasive sense of unease with a gripping narrative that held attention from beginning to end.” – Rich Lopez, DALLAS VOICE
“…a compelling, intriguing drama, that engages us viscerally, and intellectually. Indirect and subtle, intense and implacable, the narrative is smart and the chemistry palpable.” – Christopher Soden, SHARP CRITIC
