Mercury-addled and fabulously flighty, Pochsy is back with a new monologue!
Sweet, vapid, and venomour, Pochsy is an endearingly charming embodiment of all that’ s gone bats in the world. She used to work at Mercury Packers. Where she packed mercury. Now her employer has moved offshore and Pochsy must grapple with God’ s broken promise of a five-star future. This is a night sea journey on an unnaturally sparkling river. Harrowing and high speed, Pochsy IV unboxes precarity, consumer obsessions, the future of humankind . . . and whatever else might keep you up at night.
Combining magical realism, satire, and horror, this monologue follows the acclaimed trilogy The Pochsy Plays, which have travelled internationally and been a finalist for the Governor General’ s Literary Award, among other citations. Pochsy IV: because what the world needs right now is a little more Pochsy.
