A “comedy” about hypotheticals, mail, and crazy loud sex

by Carly Polistina

Full Length Play, 1f 1m

When 20-somethings Joy and Jake run into each other (and can’t stop LITERALLY running into each other) they get locked in a disaster-prone back-and-forth fraught with injury, mail related felonies, and hypothetical questions. What does it mean to be a good person? What effect does one have on the surrounding world? What does it really mean to get to know someone? Isn’t it awful? The two play with these questions and each other in a world of cartoon violence with real world consequences.
