The Cookies Call – A Tragic Tragedy (2014)
Libretto by E. J. Roller
Synopsis:
The Cookies Call is a tragic tragedy that speaks to the (weak) hearts of a modern man- and womankind. Emmy and John, a couple with heroic intentions but a tragic weakness, find themselves face-to-face with an alluring advisory. Vulnerable and desperate, Emmy leads down John a familiar but dark path that can only (likely) result in biblically tragic consequences.
