Jamie Thompson is your average, nerdy computer genius who enjoys a good party. Jamie’s typical Friday night warps after he takes some fentanyl-laced ecstasy. He enters a new world, along with the new feelings and sensations the opiate brings. His apartment becomes bigger, more colourful, and enticing. He experiences a change in perception of his surroundings and his own personal view of himself. But how will that awareness change when the high fades and the fentanyl hits?
This performance will invite the audience to interact with the performers, the set and influence the plot. This will be the graduation performance by the students of Douglas College’s Bachelor of Performing Arts program.
