Humans are living on Roma Prime, an Earthlike planet orbiting a dying star. Many of them have moved to the Flotilla, a large group of starships that form a nation. One of these starships is forced to land on a foreign planet during a mission. A former member of this starship that was exiled already lives on this planet and is working on wormhole technology to reclaim everything she lost. 

Tiffany Keane Schaefer has written a very creative retelling of The Tempest. Half of this play is very dense with Sci-Fi jargon that is hard to follow. The other half uses less jargon and focuses on the relationships between the characters, which is when the play is at its best. 

The great cast includes Stacey Lind, Izzi King, Blake Hood, Jacob Watson, P-Jay Adams, Hayden Lane-Davis, Janice Rumshlag, Hilary Sanzel, and Sydney Ginter. This performance featured three understudies: Charles Brailovsky as Dax, Erin Bonham as Ariel, and Hayden Lane-Davies as Kai-Lune.
