Galactic Cigarettes Presents: It's Your World is one part satirical comedy and one part moral dilemma, following the lives of two regular Americans as they get the opportunity to participate in a game show where the prize is an unbelievable $100,000. The two main characters, a school teacher recently returned from Korea and a shy girl from a Manhattan typing pool, are given fame and the possibility of fortune when they become the newest contestants on Galactic Cigarettes Presents It's Your World!. And just when the audience thinks everything might just be as squeaky clean as this depiction of the nostalgic era of 1950s America, our beloved characters learn that things are not as they seem. What will two basically good, honest, hardworking Americans do when faced with the choice between the American dream and taking the moral high ground and exposing the truth?

Galactic Cigarettes Presents: It's Your World is from the duo of Paul Eiseman,http://www.harrisonhuntmysteries.com/about/, and Adam Levowitz, http://www.adamlevowitz.com, who have worked together on numerous projects including the retelling of Shakespearean classics A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Tempest.

This satirical comedy delivers on every promise – the nostalgia of squeaky clean 1950s America and the underlying problem created when morality is challenged.
