THE EGG

Running October 29 - November 21, 2026 at Austin's The Rosette

THE EGG is a one-of-a-kind theatrical experience featuring freakish birdpeople, illegal surgery, and out-of-control technology.

About the Play

THE EGG is an absurdist dark comedy about technology and art

It is about identity under siege, about the longing to be known and the terror of being replicated

It is about art in an age of algorithms; connection in a world engineered for isolation; and mortality colliding with the promise of digital immortality

Childhood and decay. Love and betrayal.

And somewhere in the shadows, an army of dolls awaits.
