Mia McCullough says she "felt naked" writing her latest and most personal play, a cautionary tale based on a tumultuous time in her life. Lucinda has spent her youth getting straight A's, preserving her chastity, and generally being too damn good. Then she meets the monster under her bed, who makes every effort to bring out her bad side. Through college hookups to a stale marriage and a rocky divorce, Lucinda's monster keeps resurfacing. Performed with the lights up during transitions, so we can see the cast do the physical work of aging their characters, this witty portrait of a life of wrong turns examines the monster hidden in the recesses of everyone's bedroom. --Marissa Oberlander
