ALT Quote on a forest background: JO: Hey, Grandma?
GRANDMA: Yes?
JO: Everything is going to be okay, right?
GRANDMA: I can’t promise you that, but we’re all hoping for a happily-ever-after. There’s always going to be scary things in the woods, and wickedness without reason, but every once in a while you will stumble upon a cottage in the woods for a good night’s sleep. And sometimes it might be a cluttered guest bedroom…but with the right people by your side, you can have a night full of sweet dreams, and wake up and find a way out. Good night, girls.

ALT Quote from play script on an orange background of a hot sun over a landscape -
JANE: Persephone. Listen. Geology. Rocks. Fossil fuels. The
extraction of energy from the earth. This stuff is powerful.
It’s been years we’ve been studying it and now—you
notice how bright everything is?
PERSEPHONE: Sure?
JANE: How warm?
PERSEPHONE: It’s always warm when I’m here.
JANE: Honey. It’s not your time to be here. You’re usually
tucked away underground now. We used to shiver through
these months. Sit by the fire. Eat canned peaches.
PERSEPHONE: Canned?
JANE: It’s fine. There’s Christmas. Used to be a cozy, snowy
holiday. That was nice. But—your mother’s changed things.
