A man bursts onto the stage brandishing a sword; the sight of the audience fills him with longing and awakens distant shreds of memory. He has no idea where or who he is, but knows he has escaped Hell. He casts a spell, and the audience’s experience begins to fuse with his. Don Juan bursts through the fissure that separates mortality from eternal damnation and tries desperately to remember who he was, discover what he is doing here now and uncover why he has been allowed to escape. John Carter, a local poet, turned to playwriting over the past fifteen years and deftly merges lyrical language with narrative as he delves into the complex nature of Don Juan’s reflections on a life he would have lived in no other way; even with the full knowledge of the resulting punishment.
