Whimsical ensemble comedy set in a magical tenement during the sixth mass extinction.
In a crumbling tenement building suspended somewhere between whimsy and ruin, a group of eccentric neighbors attempt to coexist as the world outside edges closer to collapse. Their strange but stable rhythms are upended when a mysterious, glowing figure—part human, part celestial body—crash-lands through their roof. As this enigmatic visitor disrupts and connects their lives in unexpected ways, the tenants confront the absurdity, grief, and possibility that coexist at the end of the world.
Inspired by the dreamlike visual language of Joseph Cornell’s shadow boxes, the stylized worlds of Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amélie), and the quiet physical comedy of Jacques Tati (Mon Oncle), this magical-realist ensemble piece blends theatrical invention, visual storytelling, and absurdist humor. The production invites audiences into a richly imagined universe where extinction, connection, and hope all share the same stage.
