Description

A world premiere multimedia play by Ryan Michael Teller.

After the incomprehensible death by combustion of his best friend and mentor, Manny Singer tries to navigate the monstrous world of present day Los Angeles and the monsters looking to capitalize on his story. This surreal extrapolation from the event, frenetic and dreamlike, examines the harsh abandonment of youth.

"Everyone was writing their 9/11 response plays and this was mine. An exploration of loss--an exploration of a pure and simple relationship which is exploited by a corrupt outside world."
