Static: A Party Girl’s Memoir
Inside Out TheatreAt the tender age of 18, Ashley King’s life is all about booze, boys, and late-night parties. But when she wakes up blind while on holiday, she has to face her darkest depths, grieving a new life she didn’t choose or want.
This isn’t your typical inspiration story. Static is a poignant and humorous take on the struggles and triumphs of a young woman learning to navigate the world without sight. This dark comedy explores whether everything really happens for a reason and if joy can be found in unexpected places.
This podcast is an adaptation of Ashley King’s play Static: A Party Girl’s Memoir. Each episode starts with part of the play, performed by Ashley King as herself and Jaime Cesar as Carolina. Then, in the second half, learn more about this true story as Ashley talks to those who inspired the script.
Static is produced by Ashley King and Meg Wilcox, with sound design by Miranda Martini, with support from Inside Out Theatre, Chromatic Theatre, and the Community Podcast Initiative at Mount Royal University in Calgary, Canada.
