“Ease into the schadenfreude and laugh along…in this dark, finely-tuned two-man farce.” Bitter Lemons

“Then it spirals into an Alice-like Rabbit Hole of the mind, as we laugh as a strange reality that somehow continues to feel possible long after the laws of the physical universe have been left behind.” Night-Tinted Glasses

Former millionnaire and convicted tax evader TR Hamer has his world recollapse while attempting to do an IRS-mandated community service show. En route to rock bottom number two, and despite the efforts of Senior IRS agent Martin Almond, TR proceeds to rewrite the show, sad-eat a pile of marshmallows, crawl into a bag, and fall in love a bunch of times while threatening suicide. From within the madness, TR begins to suspect that his “tormentor” Martin Almond might be the only thing propping him up.
