The Egg: Coming to The Rosette theater, Austin, TX, October 29 – November 21.
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.
