“The Nether” Review.

The production starts off with a man named Mr. Sims later known as “Papa” being interrogated by a person known as Detective Morris. Detective Morris is interrogating him about a virtual world he created so people and him self could live out their fantasies and desires that are not excepted in his world. Mr. Sims expressed how he has the argue to mess with little girls and created the virtual world so that he would not take his argues out on a real little girl. Detective Morris was trying to get him to understand how it was still morally wrong to imagine things like that and something bad had to happen in real life to start the whole process. Later on in the play we found out Detective Morris was not getting her inside information from an agent she was the agent. She created an account and end up falling in love with the whole concept of the virtual world. In the midst of it all we found out why Detective Morris was so emotionally involved in the “investigation” it was because as a child her father did not show her any attention and she could not understand why, she longed for his affection and never got it. so when he died he left her his login and she then saw why.

Even though this play was mentally disturbing, it was very interesting. shows that sometimes virtual worlds can help with the desire and temptation of morally wrong urges a person might have.
