Play: Space Princess Wars
When Archer finds herself a captive audience for her dad's latest masterpiece, it seems pretty familiar for a fantasy adventure screenplay at first. Wars, in the stars. Brides, of the princess variety. This story's got such an incredibly absurd array of heroes, villains, robots, and romances, it's total chaos. But once Archer gets pulled in to the mashup tale of a princess with a secret agenda and some space wizards destined for greatness, she starts to wonder: Could this be so much chaos it's actually... genius?
