This Play is a one-act show exploring the perils of hunting for certainty. It asks what we know about ourselves, what we know about our universe, and whether it's worth trying to know anything at all.
We all find uncertainty uncomfortable, and we cling to so many different things to try and avoid it. This play asks you why.
Since the dawn of time, mankind has struggled against a singular great evil: automated phone systems. This is a story about one of those struggles. The average person spends one thousand and thirty hours of their life on hold, but it only takes one of those hours to change Dave forever. A modern-day epic, company-man Dave is tasked with getting an update on a delivery by ruthless manager Devon. Little does he realise this simple task will have him face his own Goliath in a tale of love, woe, rising empires, crumbling cities, repetitive hold music, and at the end of it all, he might just get an update on where his bloody package is.
