Four country children waiting in the rain for the school bus take turns telling stories.

Now, generations later, a young man and his mother fight for ownership of the table.

A savage comedy of manners, It Just Stopped explores our relationship to art, globalisation, death, technology, America, Campari, cardboard boxes and slavery.

Written with searing passion and dazzling momentum, Myth, Propaganda and Disaster in Nazi Germany and Contemporary America reverberates with the aftershocks of September 11.
