PILLOW FORTRESS

Carnegie Mellon University Playground Festival XXI (2023)
Directed by Wendy Kuhn

​Pillow Fortress follows three college classmates after they receive an alert that someone has just escaped the local jail. Chelsea has a penchant for the law. Ry advocates for prison abolition. Jordan is just scared shitless. They try to prepare for what might happen if they encounter the escapee, but find out they need to face each other first. Pillow Fortress is part polemic, part slumber party, and all chaos.
