“Wanderlust is spectacularly good...”
-NYtheatre.com
After more than a decade of temping, both at work and in relationships, a man embarks on a solo trip deep into Africa, trekking from the Atlantic to the Sahara. There he demands an Epiphany. Any Epiphany. Some proof that though we’re temporary, we’re more than mere temps.
A comic, true story.

“Dockery is an insightful and articulate writer and an equally smart and captivating actor... His remarkable adventures make the heartbeat alternately race and relax. Best of all, there's a subtle but compelling point behind Wanderlust that seeps into the consciousness... a call to action.”

“The
best of the best of the best.”
-The Orlando Sentinel on Wanderlust at The Orlando Fringe
“A tour de force travelogue that leads you through the far reaches of rural West Africa, and also into the restless, spirited searchings of Dockery’s own mind... Vivid and comical. And his story, like that of all gifted storytellers, turns out to be about much more than a meandering journey to Timbuktu. Dockery is the real deal, and Wanderlust is magical.”
