In Conversation - MICHAEL GOETZE

A mother who performs her life.

A daughter who refuses the script.

A family held together by appearances - until the night everything breaks open.

In Conversation explores the tension between who we are and who we're expected to be. It is a play about the fragile architecture of family - the silences that shape us, the roles we inherit, and the truths we spend years avoiding. When a mother and daughter finally confront the fault lines between them, their world tilts toward something neither expected: not reconciliation, but the possibility of it.

Told in a hybrid form that blends dialogue, gesture, and the unspoken, this is a story of two women learning, painfully and imperfectly, how to see each other at last.
