A farcical intergalactic play in one-act
Penned by Sophia Romma
ABOUT THE PLAY

The Virus Corazón is causing chaos among the human population. This stoic and unruly viral infection infiltrates all those who show the ability to covet, to love and entraps those who possess the deep and insatiable desire to fornicate. Three outcasts have been weeded out to populate a new planet, called the Voon. These soon to be Vonanians are to be reformed and purged for their transgressions of depicting feelings and falling in and out of love. These natural human emotions deriving from the ardent passion and amorous adventures, which have particularly imbued the lives of these three slightly off-kilter but ardent fugitives and pariahs—are no longer desirable emotions and land all those who portray a propensity for showing feelings in the penitentiary or the psychiatric ward—as well as in freezers or in bathroom urinals. As punitive measures in the spirit of reformation. These outsiders are mandated to be beheaded by the guillotine at the hands of a sadistic otherworldly vengeful alien, an intergalactic trooper, who uses her bewitching powers and stark wit to, in a totalitarian manner, elicit confessions from these fugitives as she cannot merely deliver these inmates traveling in an out of control pod, to a novel full of hope planet without forcing these cellmates to repent first—as ordained by the dictatorial government of our unholy planet earth.
