Lucy's got a bit of a problem with reality. Especially these days when it insists on playing hardball. Luckily, she's a VR Designer and the options of which realm she'd like to exist in seem endless. When Lucy's husband, David, becomes ill, Lucy goes on a mission to save him. But as his health deteriorates, she's faced with a decision – does she watch her husband suffer in the real world or lose herself in an ideal virtual reality? 'LUCY AND THE VR GODS' Is a play about loss, denial and how we grasp the ungraspable.
