Inspired by a true story, Nothing is a multi-media play about Ben, a young man with autism who is struggling through the social grind that is high school. He retreats to a world of technology (MP3, video cameras, online gaming) in order to escape his tragic reality of constant bullying. When Ben meets Barbie in a divine online connection, he builds up the courage to venture out of his comfort zone and visit her in the flesh. This overwhelming escapade leads Ben into a dangerous situation, putting his own life at risk.

NOTHING is premiering in the U.S. after finding it’s success in Europe. Video, music, and theatre are presented by one actor through use of rhyme and modern technology. Bullying, autism awareness, and suicide prevention are brought to light through NOTHING, a story at odds with the tragic reality.
