“it seemed as if a certain part of the world changed forever”

We continue to be isolated, nearly 1 year on from the initial lockdowns. While vaccine rollouts mean that some semblance of “normal” life will return, the experience of this isolation, fear, and upheaval will linger with us. We have learned in this time about our fellow humans, and while there have been moments of hope, the divide between factions feels to have grown into a chasm. Will we ever reconnect? Or has the awareness of these differences changed us forever?

Join us March 12 and 13 at 8pm EST for a live digital performance, with an interactive twist. Two actors will be cast and appear both nights, rehearsed. Each night, two more actors will receive the script and some specific instructions an hour before the performance, and will perform their cold read. You won’t know which of our guest performers is there until the day of. And you, the audience, will also receive your instructions day-of, for how to curate your space and how you can interact.

Tickets are PWYC, $15 minimum donation. If you are watching with more than 1 person in your household, please consider this in your donation.

Unable to join us live? Don’t worry — the performances will be available to purchase on demand from March 14 through April 3, via the same ticket link.
