Eternal Reach Bob Siegel

Eternal Reach is a one-act play about four people who die of different tragic causes. Together, they make the shocking discovery that an afterlife does exist. Waking up in a mysterious, inescapable prison, each subject wears a wristband with the words: "YOU WILL BE ASKED TO EXPLAIN THE MEANING OF LIFE." This instigates a deep and bitter conversation about the purpose of human existence. To the unhappy Bill Morgan, the meaning of life was work. To the divorced Marsha Billings, the meaning of life was love. To the elderly Dr. Hoffman, the meaning of life was charity. To 19-year-old David Miller, life had no meaning. What's your version of the meaning of Life? Somewhere in this play, you will find your own thoughts, your own words, and your own dreams.
