Synopsis

We live in a world where reality is only an adjective. Where, thanks to the Internet, you can now be rejected by millions of people on a global scale. Where there have been so many technological innovations, the next improvement might just kill us.

"This Happened To Someone I Know" is a series of musical sketches and one-acts in which several lonely people try to find romance and connection in a game where the rules keep changing and that no one was ever any good at in the first place. As the final song states, "Love is war, and we’re the walking wounded." Yet despite the odds, it’s still possible. We will end in hope, dancing as the lights fade around us.
