Brief Synopsis:
YOU play the role of cruel fate in a romantic comedy for cynics of all ages! When a dysfunctional couple can't make simple decisions, like ordering red or white wine, the audience votes and the show takes off in wildly different directions. Soup or salad? A slap or a kiss? Life or death? YOU DECIDE! With multiple storylines and endings, plus ever-changing scene options, you can't see it all if you only see it once! A "create your own adventure" story for grown-ups.
