I am a huge fan of the "came back wrong" trope, and this "kitchen sink sci-fi" concept is such an inventive way to play with it! This play toes the line between 'botched resurrection' and 'end of the time loop' - arguably the best parts of any science-horror story! It's a sharp and efficient tragedy that reveals itself a little more with each page. It's entirely dialogue-driven and easy to produce, making genre theatre more accessible for theatres with any budget. Best of all, it will be relatable to nearly anyone who has been lost in a quagmire of grief.
