In the eerie stillness after the final curtain, Mara Voss-once a dazzling star of stage and song-stands alone with nothing but the ghost light and the shards of her past. Haunted by memories of triumph and betrayal, she wrestles with the masks she wore, the roles she lost, and the price of a life lived in the spotlight's glare. Curtain Call and Confession is a haunting one-act solo play that weaves poetic reflection, surreal theatricality, and fierce defiance into a timeless tale of aging, identity, and artistic reckoning. Step behind the velvet curtains and into the fractured soul of an actress who must confront the ghosts of her own making-and find a freedom beyond the footlights.

Santa Fe, 1878. The Loretto Chapel stands unfinished-a choir loft mocking the sisters below, unreachable without ruin. Desperate prayers to St. Joseph summon a stranger: a weathered carpenter with a donkey, tools, and a whistle that hums like a hidden psalm. In the dead of night, he builds the impossible: a spiraling staircase of spruce and pegs, rising thirty-three steps without center or nail-warm as living wood, scented with snow and rosemary. But as doubt creeps in from skeptical reporters and weary knees, the sisters wonder: Is this man mere craftsman... or the hand that once mended the world? A reverent retelling of legend, laced with noir shadows and outsider faith. Climb the helix-where every step whispers belief amid the dark.

As she battles a reality where even thoughts aren't safe, Maya's rebellion sparks a global uprising, but the system fights back, blurring the line between free will and code.
