And thus, there’s a new play for teens in the world. Battle tested, it works, though I’ll still revise it based on our production and post the final chapter to Carl’s story this summer.
Y’all. I love this one. I love them all, and this one is a particular kind of awesome in the key of “I care about this kind of thing.” A poem in an alien language stops a battle. Every time someone dies, they talk about how they met the love of their life. There’s an element in the play that is 100% random and improvised every night. We have aliens who share hearts and brains, aliens who can switch bodies, a ship that’s a total jerk, and so much more. The heroes on their hero’s journeys even miss the climax of the play. I love that.
