Georgia’s husband Corbin has landed his dream job as a product engineer working under a tech superstar. Georgia is thrilled–that is, until she learns that the company demands round-the-clock monitoring of their devices. Mona Pirnot’s dynamic one act relentlessly dissects a relationship brought to the brink of ruin by an exposed lie, and raises the question of how much personal privacy we should expect from our friends, employers, and partners in the digital tech era.

— LILY JANIAK, SF CHRONICLE
“At once funny, intimate and of-the-zeitgeist”
— JEAN SCHIFFMAN, BAY CITY NEWS
“Peerzada and Cabrera sizzle with electric synergy…Don’t miss this layered examination of privacy and intimacy in the digital age”
