Somnotomy

Intramural's newest original play plunges into the surreal world of sleep, dreams, and the entities that haunt them. Between graveyard shifts at her family's gentrification-themed coffee shop in New Orleans, Jane Yardhauser is trapped in a nightly ritual with Tramfogor – a sentient sleep paralysis demon that takes the shape of her favorite rapper, Papa Star. When a freelance "sleep interventionist" offers to banish her demon, the boundaries between Jane's sleep and waking life start to dissolve. Meanwhile, the café's lone customer, her brother, and her neighbor start experiencing nightmares of their own. As they all confront what they've been running from, Tramfogor grows hungrier.
