entertaining and every bit as strange as PKD himself


(5 étoiles)

look this is a weird one, I wouldn't call it a musical but there's multi-part singing and lots of different narrators and characters to keep track of. and most of all for it to make any sense you have to be a bit of a PKD nerd. I can't even imagine how strangely this production would come across to someone coming in cold. it might be mistaken for the rantings of lunatics who somehow got access to a microphone and an internet connection

Did you bother to read the text? No you didn't!


Gregory Whitehead's dark, surreal and satirical drama, set in contemporary America, centres on a deadly futuristic weapon in the shape of the android head of science-fiction writer Philip K Dick. This was NOT written by Philip K. Dick! It is an imaginative work of Science Fiction. I DO NOT REPEAT NOT HAVE ANY CONTROL OF THE CATEGORY, OLD TIME RADIO. ALL OF MY UPLOADS ARE AS, R A D I O D R A M A... Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day!

This interesting story failed to live up to current sensibilities. All stories should be contextualized in terms of the oppression of BIPOCs by old white males. There should also be lots of gay sex. Sadly this story failed in this regard. It is literally Mein Kampf.
