The plot centers around two Dada performance artists who have built a theatre in their living room and who are hosting a dinner party. Things go quickly awry when they discover an asteroid is headed their way which threatens to demolish the earth. They and the audience are forced to answer existential questions: Can humans be good if no one is watching? What is the meaning of life? What is performance art?

Veteran actors Marissa Bond, Rafael Medina, Emily Parr, Donny Prosise, and Britney Stout bring the delightful comedy to life. Peter Herman is Lighting and Scenic Designer, Jeanne Luper designed the costumes, Debra Knapp is the Choreographer and Algernon D'Ammassa is the Fight Choreographer.
