I Don't Do Innocents: A Radio Play in One Act.

The text is a one-act radio play titled *I Don't Do Innocents* by Anne Carson, centered on a family wedding and narrated primarily through the perspective of Asta, the sister of the bride. The play explores family dynamics, underlying tensions, and themes of memory, violence, and the complexity of human relationships, often conveyed through fragmented dialogue and symbolic references such as mythology and ritual (e.g., grinding grain clockwise to avoid calling the Devil). Characters include family members like Uncle Hod, who has a criminal past, and Odd Otto, who experiences anxiety, highlighting diverse personal struggles within the family. The play’s atmosphere is marked by a mix of mundane wedding preparations and darker undercurrents, culminating in a mysterious violent incident that underscores the play’s meditation on innocence and blame.
