Grief
A ONE ACT PLAY - In an academic hallway, a group of intellectuals debate perception, colour, and the possibility of a “mystic beast” lurking in the shadows. As theories multiply and language grows elaborate, a phone call from a dying grandmother interrupts the room’s rational certainties. What begins as playful speculation slowly fractures into something darker — exposing the violence hidden within the need to control what cannot be explained.
The Colour of Water is a sharp, unsettling exploration of grief, inheritance, and the cost of refusing to see clearly.
