So now our psych faces a patient who objects to the advice given in the an earlier patient. He has “do no harm,” try to provide a little help to a patient in need, and make sense of his own thoughts at this time.
A second scene from the practice of a San Franciscan Black Psychiatrist.

When we’re awake? Or when we’re asleep.
A Dublin business has spent twenty years carefully crafting her company, her position, her identity.

She is in control of all, until a memory from the past appears and starts to ask a few questions.

We know the story.
Three women.
A London Office.
A missing colleague.
And a pandemic.
Three women wake one morning to discover that a colleague has vanished in the night. Gone. Poof. Not a bit of a trace.
The clue to the story lies in a play that has just opened in a London Theatre. The missing colleague has vanished into the world of that play and has become engaged in a grand debate about the roles of women in modern society.
But the three women in the office are not part of the debate. They are earning a living. They are caring for family. They trying to decide what they need to do today in order to be ready for tomorrow, while worrying about their friend.
A play about the world of George Bernard Shaw and Karl Pearson that takes no guff from either.
