The Heat Death of the Universe is a tragedy about a politician forced to confront her past, her ideals, and, also maybe the God Dionysus during a fundraiser at a vineyard. Using humor, argument, and dance, this modern adaptation of The Bacchae by Euripides probes the agonies and ecstasies of leftist politics, conspiracy theories, and rosé.
The Heat Death Of The Universe had its world premiere as part of The Once And Future Festival at the Greenhouse Theater Center in Chicago, IL, from May 20th to April 15th, 2023
