PLAY CYCLE
IN DEVELOPMENT
Inspired by absurdist theatre, Sims 4, and Love Island UK, "End of the Day” is an eight-play cycle that examines the unique anxieties, uncertainties, and frustrations of trying to find love in the “coronial age.”
EPISODE ONE
2M, 2F
Tud, Myleigh, and Lancelot are perhaps the only surviving contestants of a British reality dating show broadcast during a massive extinction event. Isolated from the outside world, they dance between denial and acceptance, searching for love and meaning in a pointless, absurd existence.
EPISODE TWO
2F, 1M
After coupling up with Myleigh, Lancelot's head is turned when his crush Billie arrives at the “side villa.” A shell of her former self, Billie tries to make sense of the horrors she escaped at main villa, as competition between Myleigh and Lancelot intensifies.
