Staged Reading - Sea of Tranquility

ONE NIGHT ONLY
Ben and Nessa sell the house in Connecticut to make a new start in New Mexico. But soon their new life is over-run by house guests that won't leave, runaway teens, upset Native Americans, and echos from a past that just won't go away.
This contemporary dark comedy from Howard Korder (Pulitzer Prize winner for Boy's Life) skewers everything from Scientologists to Burning Man to the vacuousness of Hollywood. In the end it it just about people trying to find happiness in a very crazy world. Something we can all relate to!
