INTRUSIVE is a psychologically charged drama about anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and the weight of unspoken experiences. Set during a seemingly ordinary night with friends, the story follows Jess as her inner world begins to overwhelm reality. Blurring the line between memory and imagination, the play invites audiences to experience the unsettling intensity of a mind struggling for control. Honest, intimate, and unsettling, INTRUSIVE offers a raw exploration of mental health and trauma.
