THE SINGULARITY PLAY
7W/3M or NB performers
In an unused room at the Google offices in Manhattan, a theater troupe has gathered to rehearse a new play written by an advanced AI named "Denise." In an art that relies so substantially upon our human-ness, what does it mean to cede the stage to artificial intelligence? Who are we when reflected by the intelligence we’ve created?

6 MO @ NH
Written with EllaRose Chary, 6 Mo @ NH chronicles the rise of the Free State Project in New Hampshire, its anarchist mission, and the controversies and heartbreak that accompany participation in ideological politics. How does this fringe movement reflect both the rot and the power of politics in America? If we've been taught by systems we seek to overturn, is it possible to avoid recapitulating systemic oppression?
Developed in The Civilians R&D Group, 2016
Performed (in part) at Joe's Pub, Let Me Ascertain You: Anarchy! with The Civilians, 2016
Developed at the Harvard Art Lab, 2020
