Shiloh is happy, or at least trying to be. Ever since she joined The World of Joy and left the Sunken World behind, she's had no good reason to be sad. The others in the Home love her, she has everything she could want, and her days are spent telling wondrous and true tales of forgotten times - free of harm or sadness. But when a stranger arrives (a "documentary filmmaker," she says) with questions of her own in a hunt for Hidden Truth, the blissful foundations of Shiloh's world start to crack, and the members of the Word of Joy are faced with the widening fault-lines in their precious happiness. A play about cults, stories, joy, sadness, truth, lies, and why we believe the things we believe.
