TURN (excerpts of a novella)

Written and Performed by Paul Halley
Directed by Derek Tarson

In an episode of manic despair, an unstable 23-year-old from New York exaggerates his way into a luxury California rehab center as a scheme to find fame and recognition in The Golden State. Upon his arrival, he is forced to reckon with the state of his own mental health until he is compelled to run off the property, leaving his unsuspecting mother unaware of his whereabouts — and leaving himself to end up where he really belongs.
