The Crescent Beach Mall in South Carolina was your basic modern shopping center-boutiques, movie theaters, eateries, and a packed parking lot-until reality unraveled on the inside. Now the mall is a supernatural oddity known worldwide as "Pandora's Box." People travel from miles around to have their chance inside; some come out, and some are never seen again.

As his business progresses, the locals of Crescent Beach begin to realize the effects Pandora's Box may be spreading.

Children's toys become weapons, pets mutate into monsters, and the flow of time itself is corrupted in the nearby vicinity of the odious mall. Sebastian may be in over his head, but then so is the entire town of Crescent Beach.

In a backwoods tavern in South Carolina, a young woman and her Yankee boyfriend peddle the wonder-inspiring potatoes, rushing to sell them off before the clock strikes twelve on New Year's Eve. One man's poison is another man's witchcraft. The yams reveal that reality has no door-only a sliding curtain to a story its users will be telling forever. 'Hot Potato' is a loud, irreverent three-act play with roughly a dozen characters. The play has its own language (and some strong language with references to sexuality). The play is a big gloppy sandwich, half of which lands in your lap if you're not careful. 'Hot Potato' is a conversation about the things that drive us, how we overcome disappointment, and the secrets of life.

Being Martian isn't easy. Many are hopeless dreamers-and most are drunks. Martians are pale, red-eyed humanoids; physically gifted, scientifically advanced, but culturally-backward. We built casinos on Mars, and view Martians with the same lack of regard displayed toward Native Americans. One Martian defied his racial stigma to rise to the position of homicide detective. His name is Bobby Haller, and he has problems galore. A local gangster is breathing down his neck. His fellow Martians are planning a revolt. He's dodging bullets on a daily basis. Staying alive in Los Angeles is part tightrope walk, part Martian Shuffle. Scrambling to prevent a war between the planets, Bobby and his bad-ass counterpart Samuel Barone still hope to discover the best of life on Earth-family, friendship, redemption. It could already be too late. Martians are planning a comeback-and the end of life on Earth as we know it.
