Pocket Revolution is a darkly comic one-woman play about survival, guilt, and the stories we invent when reality becomes impossible to face. Sitting in a police interrogation room after running someone over, Lucy tries to explain what happened ? though she is not sure if it was an accident, if the man is dead, or if her version of events is even true. As the questioning unfolds in real time, fantasies of innocence and success begin to crack, exposing workplace exploitation, financial pressure, migration, shame, and loneliness. What starts as a frantic explanation slowly turns into a confession from a woman losing control of her own narrative.
