"With a decidedly dark comic bent, Rogers' play explores not only the
ways people can exercise control in their lives, but also the ways in
which human existence -- in its widest sense -- has become a commodity
in the Internet age. In nine scenes that alternate between the
hilarious and the morbidly bleak, the work reveals not only why Colin
and crew are willing to help Meredith commit suicide, but also the
tenuousness of their relationships. Viral satisfies and its story lingers well after its final moments."
