Sample of play "ECO VILLAGE"
When temporarily homeless Robin hitch-hikes her way to an eco-village she read about online, all she's looking for is a warm meal, a place to sleep, and maybe some new friends. What she finds instead is a parallel universe, in which wholesome earth skills and New Age optimism blend vertiginously with Bacchanalia and Sadomasochism. When Robin falls for Jake, a brilliant but tormented handyman, their explosive connection incites a devastating series of events, revealing the limits of human connection, and the true costs of utopia.
