THE VIRTUAL FAMILY

 (Ages 10-18)

BY JEREMY JOHNSON

Auditions Aug 20 7:00pm-8:00pm

Virtual performances presented online Oct 2, 2020 7:00pm

!!! Please note; a Zoom Meetings capable device is required to participate.

$100 participation fee  $50 for each additional child. Scholarships are available.

SHOW DESCRIPTION:

Meet the Virtuals — Dad, Mom, Son, Daughter, Grandma, plus a cat named Kitten and a kitten named Cat.  Part Griswalds, part Jetsons, they’re just an ordinary family living in extraordinary times. A slew of technological advances, electronic home assistants, and computerized appliances, including Bobert the vacuum and FAB, the Fitness Assistant Bot, are meant to make life easier and bring the Virtuals together, but somehow they wind up more disconnected than before! 

Maybe technological advances aren’t all they’re cracked up to be?

Just watching Dad “interview” toothbrushes online leaves one to wonder if the Virtual family can survive the challenges of the real world.  Good thing he has all his Dad jokes to guide him, even if nobody else finds them funny! 

This family already only communicates digitally, always in different rooms of their house.

But will a strange robot virus lead to self-imposed social distancing?  Find out during this wonderful 60-minute play full of humor and heart.
