The two-act play, by David Lindsay-Abaire, will run Nov. 10-12 and Nov. 16-18. Curtain time is 7:30 p.m.

Claire (Rachel Swartzendruber) has a rare form of amnesia that erases her memory whenever she goes to sleep. This morning, like all mornings, she wakes up a blank slate. Today, however, she finds herself confronted with a strange assortment of new faces: a limping, lisping, half-blind, half-deaf man in a ski mask; an upbeat husband who goes into the shower and never returns; a dimwitted thug with a beloved hand puppet; and a claustrophobic lady-cop.

Every twist and turn in this funhouse plot bring Claire closer to revealing her past life and everything she thought she’d forgotten. It’s one harrowing and hilarious turn after another on this roller-coaster ride through one woman’s attempt to regain her memory while surrounded by a curio-cabinet of alarmingly bizarre characters.
