Winner of the 2023 Susan Glaspell Prize. When a soldier returns from war carrying the ghosts of their tour, they're faced with a sobering decision: address their alarming PTSD with Virtual Reality therapy, or risk losing access to their family forever.

Developed with support from the Sloan Foundation and Operation Warrior Resolution. If you are from a theatre considering producing the show, contact me for private archival video of the premiere at Urbanite Theatre.
