Collateral Damage and Other Cosmic Consequences

Set in a waiting room outside a mysterious alien laboratory, Bill attempts to dissuade Karma from igniting a suicide bomb strapped to her chest. Bent on exacting revenge against a "Gray" who stole her eggs, Karma's determination and cynicism provides humorous contrast to Bill's optimism, trust and appreciation for "the gift of hover boards."

    The saying “karma is a bitch” gets a new meaning in this very funny play about one woman’s plan of revenge. New relationships are hard and this one is the biggest one yet with an alien species taking over the world and making all kinds of promises to those they rule just like we all do at the start of a relationship. Two people meet up at an alien lab and it just might be that the they will find a connection through a baseball game if they live to see tomorrow.
