What would you take with you into the afterlife?
Branden Jacobs-Jenkins’ hilarious, biting, thought-provoking, and Pulitzer Prize finalist play Everybody, is a contemporary take on the 15th-century morality play Everyman. As the character named “Everybody” journeys toward death, they reflect on a life too quickly coming to an end and beseech a colorful cast of characters, including Time, Friendship, Beauty, and Stuff, to accompany them into the afterlife.
Each night, an onstage lottery assigns cast members their roles – making each performance unique and surprising. Irreverent, heartfelt, and enticingly unpredictable, Everybody invites us to laugh, reflect, and confront our inevitable end.
This is preview night. $15 tickets are available for anyone.
