Remote

A girl called Antler wants nothing to do with the world anymore. She smashes her phone and climbs the tallest tree, or rather the only tree, in her neighborhood park. She wants to be found by no one — not her friends, not her sister, and certainly not bullies on the prowl. Seven teenagers’ lives all intertwine over the course of a single, normal evening as they make their way through their normal park. Remote is a play about protest, power, and protecting yourself.
