A story about theater people written by a theater kid in a context anyone can understand or even identify with. So non-thespians and baby thespians need not fret, the story explains things for you and guides you as you read on! 

It's 2012 in New York City,  and we follow a number of chapters in the fucked up story of a woman whose life is in shambles, and sometimes chapters in the life of those around her.  Anyways, with the help of her friends and odd strangers, she searches within herself and discovers the strength to try and put all the pieces back together, learn which pieces should be thrown and replaced with something better, and which ones she doesn't need. 

We witness as she stumbles through the streets of New York, trying to progress her career,  learn the real meaning of love and friendship and family, and we see her grow and make mistakes one way or another. We see her gain loved ones, lose some, and she learns to live on.
