I want to officially invite you to a live stream of my play, "The World's Ending and Maybe That's Kinda Hot."
It's an adaptation of the book, "The Decameron" by Boccaccio and is very relevant cause it's all about quarantining, being angsty and the plague.
Elliott Hartman, a fab Chicago director reached out to me before Covid about trying to develop the piece in Chicago but then thought it could be a cool idea to live stream a reading for y'all!
The cast is mostly Chicago actors but will also feature two NYC collaborators of mine: Irina Kaplan and Michael Galligan !
The Live stream will be this Monday, the 18th at 8pm est on youtube.
Run Time:90 mins
. If you can't make it, we will also have a link to watch it that will be available for a week or so (lemme know if you want that link :)

BLURB for the play: 7 hot young people gather in a generic meadow in Italy to hang and tell stories and hit on each other. They are like all kinda freaked/not in the bestt space though cause they just escaped the Black Plague, like no big deal cause they’re safe now…or are they?? DEVELOPMENT: The play was been developed with The Tank (dir.Jake Beckhard ) and Less Than Rent (dir. Kate Moore Heaney).
HERE’s where the livestream will be
