The four person show features a meteor shower in the valley outside Los Angeles. Corky and Norm are excited to host Gerald and Laura at their home to watch the shower. But as the stars come out and the conversation gets rolling, it becomes clear that Gerald and Laura might not be all that they appear to be. Over the course of a crazy, starlit dinner party, the wildly unexpected occurs.

Parts are: Corky: 25 to 50, wife of Norm. Quirky, funny in her anxiety. People pleaser.

Norm: 25 to 50, husband of Corky. An average working husband. Friends call him “Normal Norm”. Smart, supportive, honest.

Laura: 25 to 50, wife of Gerald. Manipulative with an enjoyment for causing trouble with and for Gerald. Flirts outrageously.

Gerald: 25 to 50, husband of Laura. “Bad Boy” type. Enjoys causing trouble with Laura. An expert on everything.
