Set: Interior of a modest city apartment.

Medieval knights, a middle-aged cook, a Greek chorus, a General, a sleep-walking woman -- why is this motley crew of characters crowded together in a small city apartment? To wait for the one person they all have in common: Samantha, their creator. She's stopped writing and unless they can convince her to continue, they may remain unfinished fragments forever. Meeting Sam explores the depths of a writer's imagination and what might magically happen when writer's block sets in.
