About How to Live on Earth
How to Live on Earth is a haunting new play about our unrelenting obsession with the next frontier and the desire to give your life for something greater than yourself. Inspired in part by the Mars One project to colonize Mars by 2025- this piece is a funny, wry, and deeply truthful portrait of the fears and hopes that drive us towards exploration and expansion.
About Not for Profit
The theater is dying! Only three actors can save it, by playing dozens of roles and telling all of their stories- from box office to the boardroom; from the page to the stage. Everything you love and everything you hate bout theaters and theater people will be... NOT FOR PROFIT!
