Synopsis:
A man stands on the 7th floor ledge of a building, staring at the abyss below, contemplating suicide. The play explores the interactions between this man and twelve other absurd characters living on the 7th floor.
"Seven Stories" is an existential comedy. Underlying all the laughable character interactions, comments, and motives, there is a philosophy that life, daily routines and relationships are all somewhat meaningless. Each character copes with his/her silly, senseless reality in a different way. The one common trait that binds them all is that they are all actors in their own personalized game of life.
