Summary
Inside the FedEx box are two things: a 100% bona-fide-heart’s-desire-level wish, and a suicide note. Hannah tracks the package back to Korea, where her grandmother recently jumped from the roof of the Sunrise Dewdrop Apartment City for Senior Living onto the wrong side of the Demilitarized Zone. Oops.
History

Hannah and the Dread Gazebo premiered at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland, OR in March 2017 under the direction of Chay Yew.
