Three Padded Walls, a 10 minute meta suspense play by Hillary DePiano

The doctors want to lock Jenny away forever but her mother thinks she can break the cycle. She only needs one more chance to get through to that fractured mind. But Jenny’s a mess, babbling about missing walls and invisible watchers. Is she crazy? Or is she the only one who really knows what’s going on?
