Trust & Safety is the newest release from writing partners Laura Blackett and Eve Gleichman. It’s tart, smart, and cuts right to the heart of the post-modern zeitgeist of relationships, information technology, and how difficult it can be to parse our lives.
We are all many aspects in one, and the challenge of modern life is reconciling every one of those aspects into the unified whole of what we are. But what happens when one seemingly small event has a domino effect?
Rosie and Jordan are newlyweds who are learning their way as a couple. Now that they’ve pledged “’til Death do us part,” there is a different kind of pressure. Jordan has the high-powered job; Rosie has a difficult low-paying job that does important work.
They end up buying a house in an area far out of New York City and learn that sometimes the last thing we actually need is to realize a dream.
While shopping in the fancy little supermarket near their newly purchased as-is house, Rosie sees Dylan and Lark. Dylan is a strapping hunk of gourmet tomboy and Lark may have stepped out of the dictionary picture for ancient-knowledge-earth-worship goddess. The ease with which they interact with the town residents and one another is what Rosie has always sought without knowing it. And the price and the journey toward supposed Nirvana takes many twists and turns, including a detour that is hotter than a Pride celebration.
