Though this is not a true "open scene," there is so much room for interpretation in this piece depending on how you cast Ash and Bash and I find that so very exciting! I also adore that Bash is concerned with all of the "left behind" pets. Exactly the first thing I would worry about! This piece is full of sadness with a light hope frosting. No matter how you play this, this story will keep audiences talking long after the lights come up.

Plays that are full of subtext and metaphor stay with me long after the last line. And in NOT LIKE THIS by Emmet L.F. Cameron, we meet 2 characters who are encountering a very changed world but who are much more preoccupied with their changing relationship. Questions of the trouble with actually getting what you want and struggles of the fantasy vs the reality in relationships thrive in this sci-fi dark comedy that incorporates open casting to make every production unique.
