Theater 120: Anxiety

Synopsis:

Tensions build when a manic-claustrophobic woman gets locked inside an office building bathroom, along with a male janitor late one night when all other employees have left for the weekend. Tensions rise as time goes by without cell phone connection, food or her medication.

Will they be rescued in time?

Michael Fletcher.

Michael Harvey Fletcher loves to perform whether it be on the stage or on the screen. No part is too large or too small for although he has played heavy hitters like Hamlet and Caligula, he's also played more quirky character bit parts than you can count!
