A straight-to-camera, direct and intimate description of how a young woman would like it all to be after she dies. The piece is part of an ongoing series of monologues-to-camera written and directed by Etchells but performed by different actors who appear to imagine their own futures, successes, deaths or disappearances. In So Small, Etchells’ comical and poignant text loops and spirals around the idea of a perfect funeral, a perfect death and a perfect reaction from friends and family.

Performed by Katie Ewald.
