Wormwood: Trauma and Snacks at the End of Days

Its the End of Days! Well, for Andy at least.

Following a chance encounter with a drunken street preacher, Andy finds himself lip to lip with a bottle of wormwood infused liqueur. Vermouth, however, is not just a yummy digestif. It is also the name of a star in the book of Revelations. A portent for the End of Days.

And so, before Andy's eyes, the street preacher transforms into the embodiment of Apocalypse, and informs Andy that for the next five days he will be going through all the stages of grief and trauma. As would be expected at the End of Days, coping and loss come to Andy embodied as Angels and Demons.

But Andy's a food dude, and his Angels and Demons don't have feathered wings or forked tongues. Ok... maybe there are feathers, and forks, but not like Andy expected. See, the divine comes to Andy in the guise of food or drink. Popcorn, Dinosaur Fruit Snacks, A Pitcher of Beer... the whole lot are cast are avatars of divine guidance. Can Candy Corn teach Andy about Despair? Where do Divine intervention and Strawberry Shortcake intersect? And what, exactly, does Matcha have to say about the role of ritual in healing?

A profound, goofball and delicious take on trauma, coping and personal Apocalypse.
