"Beneath the Deep Blue Sky" is a strange and stirring geek fantasia written for the stage by award winning poet, playwright, and computer game designer, Rob Bartel. Schizophrenic internet addicts, dispossessed panhandlers, Soviet game programmers, digital Mozarts, defeated chess grandmasters, voyeuristic search engines and more chase their varying destinies in this whirlwind exploration of what it means to be human in the age of the computer. the result is a daringly original piece of theatre that sparks the imagination and imprints itself upon the memory for years to come.
