About this Event

BEOWULF


inspired by the Old English epic
directed by Joshua Higgason


Join us for a bold reimagining of the Old English epic Beowulf set inside a surreal corporate office where a low-level bureaucrat descends into a dreamscape of monsters, memory, and myth. Drawing on a dark satirical vision of a world ruled by surveillance, paperwork, and malfunctioning systems, the piece explores alienation, control, and mortality, as fantasy and reality hilariously collapse into one another.
