Rose’s friends, who have never felt real emotions, can’t help her. Eve is a widowed self-help guru, more concerned with astrology and chakras than Rose’s problems. Celia is a prolific criminal defense attorney, too obsessed with brunch cocktails and grudges to do anything useful.
Rose’s husband, who thinks everything is a joke, is a beacon of mediocrity. They met in college and fell in love over post-expressionism and hyper-caffeination, but now their relationship is dying and Rose has nothing left to paint about. Rose’s son, who’s constantly going through phases, is a compulsive liar. He’s an otherwise well-adjusted nine-year-old kid, and they’re really stupid, trivial lies, but it bothers Rose more than she’d care to admit. Rose Evelyn Hawthorne lives in Pintop, a city, really more of a town, and she's unraveling. Then she’s accused of murder. Developed in Residency at Philadelphia Young Playwrights |

Upon realizing that his days on Earth are numbered, Charles Coates Junior vows to record the remarkable story of his life: when he was a child, he was sent on a colonist mission to the recently discovered planet Glennanike, along with several other impoverished youth, in order to find alternate habitation for humanity.
As time passed, however, their new lives crumbled beneath them as they faced adversity, uncovered shocking secrets, and fell victim to their own humanity. While recounting these events and interacting with the memories he had spent his entire life suppressing, Charles finds it harder than he could have ever imagined to face his own past.
