How do we navigate intimate relationships that are both defined and confined by institutional walls? How do we seek closure when unfolding past trauma feels like tearing up an old wound? Should we protect our loved ones at all costs, even if it means hurting others?
Fish in the Tank is a one-act play exploring these haunting questions through an intimate and turbulent coming-of-age journey of two queer characters, Echo and Rae, set on the rooftop of an all-girls boarding school. The play begins when they see each other for the first time in six years, after an unspoken incident completely altered the course of their lives.
In an institution ruled by fear, surveillance, and control, the two girls embark on a quest for truth and freedom. But how can they truly escape – through love, death, or something beyond?
