What if optimism were not a virtue, but a survival tactic? Cheerfully buried up to her waist (and later her neck) in a mound of earth, Winnie greets each new day as “another happy day.” Armed with a toothbrush, a revolver and an unshakable belief in routine, Winnie chatters, reminisces, and perseveres – even as her world literally closes in on her. Razor-sharp,
merciless, and laugh-out-loud funny, this play is an exposure of human resilience at its most absurd.
