Bell and Roe live in a post-apocalyptic wasteland that is so far gone they don’t even remember a time when there were grocery stores, safe drinking water, or 911. They each live in isolation, until they happen to meet. Bell shows Roe a game: take off your mask and see if you can breathe. Try this vegetable, and see if you wake up. Read a poem. Do more than just not die.

Bell may also have ulterior motives. Roe’s shelter is stocked with years worth of canned goods and other priceless resources. Is their friendship true—or just another game?

Premiere Production: Tomorrow Game premiered as a reading at Barter Theatre in Abingdon, VA on January 28, 2021. The play was later presented in readings at Echo Theatre Dallas and the Kennedy Center.
