55 minutes long. No intermission. Not suitable for all ages. No late entry. 

Seeking love and meaning amidst the noise of a shattered world life.

In the moments after death, the psyche of one person splits into two entities: Bardom and Ziggy. These alter-egos are in limbo, the waiting room after death, where the monsters of contemporary life swirl through an overly receptive imagination; it’s a play about all of us: tragic-comic failings, vivid with love and resistance.

Two-Show Pass!

Tickets starting at $15. For only $35, get access to both this show and A Timed Speed-Read of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire Trial Transcript (with additional notes) January 21-23 as part of StageWorks.
