"More vigor than a barrel of Viagra." --Monday Magazine, Victoria

"an electrifying performer!...Nichols is to virtual-speak what David Mamet is to real estate sharks." --Edmonton Journal

"So beautifully written and performed that it should stand as a blueprint for any solo artist." --The Vancouver Sun

SYNOPSIS: Nathan, an online junkie and hacker for a living, gets lost, one day, in a full-immersion virtual murder mystery. As Nathan tries to find his way out he begins to realize that this might be more than just a game - it appears that someone is intentionally keeping him online. Nathan surfs through more than two-dozen characters in the entertainment game. His search for the line between virtual reality and real life may be the secret to solve the murder-mystery.

"Confirms Dawson Nichols' total mastery of the one-man show." --The Sunday Mail, Australia

"Nothing short of dazzling." --Georgia Straight, Vancouver
