This play is about a soldier returning to America after his tour of duty in an unnamed desert country where he witnessed and took part in several atrocities. Unable to be near his wife and child, he moves to Los Angeles, another desert, in an attempt to change his life. There, he meets a failed actress and brings her to his room for a night of role-playing and personal confession. This play also examines the fragmented nature of the body in Western culture, using a style of heightened dialogue. It exposes the wounds given by Late Capitalism to our notions of solid identity. Hollywood is a simulacra for the country's (and possibly the world's) dreams and desires and these two characters, within that environment, create a world for themselves that could never exist in the harsh confines of external reality.
