Four snapshots of Katie’s twelfth birthday party on September 30, 1989 have been preserved in a photo album. The three images, Katie’s candle lit face, Katie blowing out the candles and Katie opening a present, have spent more than 30 years together obeying the limitations of their existence. However, today they may blow out the candles, eat the cake and open the present in an attempt to make contact with the forth, silent image.

KATIE PHONE HOME, a photograph of a twelve-year-old girl on a phone – NB – KATIE PHONE HOME can be a person or a photograph. If KATIE PHONE HOME is a photograph—it can be a picture of an actual pre-teen styled like the other characters. However, all other roles should be played by adults

AUTHOR’S NOTE: – Although the four performers are playing the same person, the KATIEs do not need to look alike. However, they should have identical outfits, makeup and hairstyles that would have been fashionable for a twelve-year-old girl in the late 80s
