The premiere production of this new drama by KU senior Adam Burnett tells of flamboyant pill popping, alcoholic binging, drug friendly romance novelist Linda Wood, who could potentially be a genius. At least that's what her editor, Pam, and the characters from her novel pronounce. As Linda nears the completion of the final novel in her lucratively successful Jacques and Sofia series, she is faced with an onslaught of major life alterations?the death of a father she had written off years ago, the arrival of her estranged housewife sister, an adoring love-infatuated editor, and a pair of characters she has to kill off before she can make the next bold step. As a new presence begins to flesh itself out in Linda's mind and strange discoveries are made, Jacques and Sofia fight for their life, and Linda finds herself in a significant place with rash decisions to make.
