Kaddish (or The Key in the Window)
Created & Performed by Donnie Mather based on the words of Allen Ginsberg.
A guilt ridden son. A mother's battle with mental illness. Hospitals. A lobotomy. Ginsberg's poem KADDISH springs to life in this multi-media performance that is equal parts memory play, confession, and eulogy. 80 minutes. www.donniemather.blogspot.com
