Appeal of Murder

A one act play about our own perceptions of reality trough the character of Tessa, a girl on trial for the murder of her sister's abusive boyfriend. We are shown the difference between how we see people, rather than their truth. As the plot progresses Tessa starts to see facts that disprove her perceptions of what she believes as truth. This shatters her perceptions of people and who she thought they were. She sees how our perceptions of how we want things to be can cloud our judgement.
