NEIGHBORHOOD 3: REQUISITION OF DOOM

What is happening in the suburbs? Lines blur between fact and fantasy as parents find their teenagers addicted to an online horror game that is turning them into misguided militants. Fear has a life of its own in this theatrical tale of real and imagined zombies, not only in the game but in the eyes of the neighbors. Award-winning playwright Jennifer Haley's apocalyptic vision combines virtual role-playing, GPS technology, teenage alienation and the "family next door" to create this provocative psychological thriller. A true Twilight Zone for the 21st century.
