After a first Act in a multitude of different locations, the second Act takes place in a sinister collapsing hotel swathed in dust sheets. Live video of a 'big brother' figure appears on the TV sets and projected at the back of the set. (bottom photograph)

"Colin Winslow's set design brilliantly and wittily serves Panych's narrative, which hopscotches in the blink of an eye from a newspaper office to a park bench to a bus
station to the front seat of an eighteen-wheeler."
- Vue Weekly
"The second act set, - the postmodern, already ruined, hotel - was a wonder of design, and as showy as anything you'll see on any 'A' stage."
