Now, we begin...

1990, Joshua Tree Desert authorities were called to investigate a disturbance in an old abandoned shack. When they arrived they found two men, moonshine and rattlesnakes. This play is loosely based on interviews with those men. However, the rattlesnakes refused to comment.

 When I finished 'Joshua Limbo' I was referred to Baraka's play about a black man and white woman riding a subway as they battled each other's racial divide underground in NYC - a great symbolic device for the piece as 'subterranean' prejudice rising up from the underworld. 'JL,' is also about two people, one black and one white, trapped in a desert shack as this website will delve into on different pages.
