Time, space, and common sense are carefully jumbled together and thrown out the window in this musical comedy.  Sam hears voices in her head telling her that the world is in terrible danger and only she can save it.  Naturally, they turn out to be the only thing that's real.  This piece premiered at the 2001 Playwrights' Platform Festival in Boston, where it swept every award offered.

Reviews: “Voices In My Head, by Ry Herman, won the votes of both the Platform’s playwrights and the festival audience, and looks like it has legs … [it’s a] delightful bit of originality … everyone who saw it gave it a #1, and I certainly did as well. Everything about this half-hour sparkled with energy, wit, and surprising originality … The mix of contemporary commentary and twisting logic stays just ahead of the audience's mind so they're too busy watching ideas explode to think about them. It's a triumph, and once producers and publishers find out about it, I'm certain it will have life after Playwrights' Platform.” – Larry Stark, Boston Theater Mirror, summer 2001
