In 1963, a housewife named Dorine started writing a play. And it was very strange.

In 1987, following Dorine’s death, her daughter, who once upon a time had been her son, endeavors to finish her mother’s play in a quest to understand the questions Dorine left behind.

These two moments in time are bookended by the beginning and end of Dorine’s play, Thrice Adrift, which takes place at an indiscriminate time, on an indiscriminate ocean, where three lonely people have struck out in pursuit of paradise.
