Ella Purnell SYNOPSIS:
“Toast” is an exercise in shutting down the frontal lobe during the writing process in hopes of catching lightning in a bottle. A five-minute waterfall of automatic cadence about how we as humans argue and negotiate with ourselves every morning over the simple task of getting out of bed.
