A New Play
Drama by Keith Foster
December 1 - 17
Directed by Brian Robert Harris
Suspicious of the US government’s use of drones, a man named Papa begins an underground colony. While the three individuals who join him don’t necessarily share his convictions, they each harbor their own desires to escape the chaos of the world outside. The laws they’ve created for themselves are immediately thrown into question when a military woman named Joan breaks into the colony. They strain to maintain control, but as distrust grows and chaos reigns, the characters’ preoccupation with drones is overtaken by their need for order.
