A WT Commission and World Premiere!

It is Michigan in the not-too-distant future, and thirst occupies the minds of everyone, especially those without access to fresh water, as the Great Lakes have been poisoned by a catastrophic spill. Jazz lives in Tablet Housing, so called because instead of providing water to the residents of the low-income housing systems, the government provides tablets that they claim fulfill the human body’s need for water. Jazz’s wealthy boss offers her a way to move up and out of Tablet Housing. But what he asks in return is unthinkable… almost. What moral boundaries will she be willing to push to save herself, and her community, from the fate they’ve been dealt? Contains adult content and language
