One year into college and still grieving over the sudden death of her sister, Margot Cates plans to spend every waking minute of summer vacation honing her skills at World of Warcraft. But before she can even log on, Margot finds herself unwillingly whisked away to a wilderness camp for online gaming addicts. Cut off from technology, the campers and counselors wrestle with personal demons both online and off. A contemporary play built on contemporary concerns, Ten Red Kings uses music, dance, and live-action avatars to bridge the ever-shrinking gap between reality and digital fantasy.
