Synopsis
A SUPER queer time travel adventure. With dinosaurs. A cross between Jurassic Park, Back to the Future, and Fried Green Tomatoes. In this charming love story, the stakes are more than life and death; they’re life or extinction.
Characters
SAM – (Late 30s, F) Overnight janitor at the Starlight. Very observant, a hard butch presenting queer on the outside but a real softie on the inside. Totally and hopelessly in love with Jessa (see below.) Lives in her truck. Sometimes couch-surfs or catches a break with a generous lady. Loves the Starlight second only to Jessa, but that’s debatable. Prone to motion sickness induced by sudden Time Travel™.
JESSA – (Early to Mid 30s, F) Late-shift waitress at the Starlight. Very pregnant. Subsists on coconut cream pie, due to baby-sickness and the fact that she can’t keep anything else down. Very confused about her dopey husband, Johnny.
DR. FRANKLIN MOXIE PhD – (Older than time, M) Doctor! Time travel enthusiast! Eccentric weirdo! Adorable savant! Coffee guzzler and frequent patron of the starlight, Dr. Moxie is a SCIENTIST who knows way more than you do about SCIENCE. Also, time, space, continuums, etc. Absolutely dashing in a white lab coat. A glutton for pie.
DANNI – (Early 20s, F) Dr. Moxie’s graduate assistant (read: slave) baseball fan and TOTAL dino buff, Danni knows more about the Cretaceous and the Diamondbacks than most folks in Arizona. Loves to read. Collects baseball cards and is also just the right amount of concerned about that comet- you know the one- that’s supposed to pass by Earth tonight? That big streak of white light in the night sky?
