Experiencing Interruptions?

BERNARD

In this 70 minute monologue, Bernard has a hard time understanding what has just happened to him. In trying to figure it out he relives his most painful memories, by telling his life story. Bernard's childhood memories are tainted by an unloving mother and an almost obsessive fondness for his younger sister. In later life, the dysfunctionality of his childhood haunts him in his own relationships with his wife and daughter. Though Bernard tries to withhold it, his biggest secret slowly gets revealed. Can you forgive him for what he did?
