About the Project
The Art of Reassurance follows Michael Blue, a man overwhelmed by isolation, self-doubt, a relentless voice of his own anxiety, & a burning desire to feel okay as his internal struggles begin to manifest physically around him. When a charismatic figure offers him a solution to his suffering, Michael is forced to confront how deeply he longs for relief and human connection. Exploring themes of mental health, identity, and the seductive appeal of quick fixes in a world that profits from insecurity, the play raises one important question about what it means to heal, and what we might lose in the process of trying to feel “okay.” Michael Blue is me, Michael Blue is you.
