About Hashtag What I did on My Summer Fake-Cation
When Jacqi Bowe’s therapy-bot, Vicki The Validator, warns that if she doesn’t vacay, she risks going cray-cray, she plans her dream vacation. Can Jacqi silence those imaginary frenemies in or head or bury that unrequited wanderlust under the travel brochures resting on the coffee table? A musical and storytelling adventure around the world in less than eighty minutes, exploring fundamental life themes like mental health, parental caretaking, an unchecked bucket list, mortality and over-priced smoothies.
