The Shomer
A Shomer keeps vigil over a dead body before burial; a protector from bad spirits, thieves, and vermin. When Susan dies at the supermarket, the baker responsible for her death must fill this role. But her soul’s not at rest and the unlikely Shomer spends the night with a room of ghosts and questions about his happiness.
"The Shomer" is a three-act play with five characters. On its way to production, it has enjoyed numerous readings with the help of the wonderful actors Matthew has met through The PlayGround Experiment and Flatbush Community Theater.
