SYNOPSIS: How do you recover from an unfathomable tragedy? Shana has been sent to a psychiatrist by her father in order to "get back to some sense of normalcy" after her mother's violent murder. Though she wishes she could remain silent, her bottled up emotions come pouring out as she battles with her feelings of anger, grief, and honest bewilderment. How can she possibly feel normal in any way when she loves her mother's murderer? This thought-provoking dramatic monologue is perfect for a challenging forensic competition piece.
