Synesthesia
A New Play by Jordyn Stoessel
Somewhere off Route 90 on the outskirts of Marfa, Texas sits the Synesthesia flagship store, a bubbly bohemian shopping oasis. When the store’s immaculate vibes are threatened by a missing employee, a mysterious rotting smell, and a splash of paranormal activity, a by-the-book retail manager must find a way to rally her employees behind the store’s shallow vision.
