With music written in collaboration with award-winning emerging composers, Baggage at the Door is an autobiographical solo show addressing the critical moment when a trauma survivor realizes she may no longer be able to simply cope;

 when falling in love triggers her latent PTSD,

                 she might be f*ck*d.
