Casey Hobbs is living the Millennial American Dream. A dead end job, rent she can't afford, and an overwhelming, soul crushing sense of dread. On the worst tinder date of her life, she meets YouTuber Bryson Lee, a gamer on the verge of success. His new acquisition, a rare vintage console called The ByteBoy33, should catapult him into YouTube superstardom. If they can survive the night...
The Nostalgia Will Eat Itself is a horror romp, spook-a-blast, B-movie of a play that takes the audience through Hell and back, and back again.
