| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 0. Minimum Female roles = 2. Minimum total with doubling = 3. Minimum total without doubling = 3. No chorus. The characters are adults, but this would be within the compass of a high school-aged actors. |

| Synopsis | Claire makes a shocking discovery about the nature of her reality, but sharing it with her friend Faye doesn't help either of them, and may even have caused the creation of a zombie. |
