Eden explores a young girl’s complicated relationship with sex and desire amidst her Christian upbringing. This new work was produced as LAB! Theatre's 2022-23 commission project—an annual undertaking in which a student writes a play, with support throughout the process by LAB!.
Playwright Tori Danielik is a student at UNC Chapel-Hill (c/o '23) with majors in English and Dramatic Art. This is the first play Tori has ever written and she is so grateful to the cast and crew for putting her words to life. After graduation, she plans to work and save up for graduate school to complete her MFA in acting (or maybe playwriting?!).
