'Gorgeous Avatar' by Jules Horne

Debut play by D & G's Virtual Writer in Residence, directed by Philip Howard, and featuring Pauline Knowles, John Kazek, Una McLean and Patrick Hoffman.

Amy's living the dream. A country hideaway, online home-working, and everything delivered right to her door. There's little reason to go beyond the garden gate. She's even found romance on the internet. High tech, long distance, low maintenance. Except he's real and he's on a flight somewhere over the Atlantic. Meanwhile, neighbours Dan and Rose are living the nightmare. With so much space, how come there's so little room to manoeuvre? And can a makeover do more than paper over the cracks?Gorgeous Avatar is a wry, tender and fantastical story of love and loneliness in the digital age - and all the things that Amazon can't deliver.
