Costumes: Sasha Mazhara Lighting: Megan Mahoney
The play centers on three recently deceased strangers who are locked in an opulent room together, where they will spend eternity processing their now-finished lives under each other’s claustrophobic scrutiny in a multi-dimensional hell. Hell Dialogues is a unique adaptation that incorporates the Dialogues of Plato and physical and verbal improvisation.
“Its set design, by Anna Kiraly, is a compelling mixture of pop art, IKEA furniture, and thermonuclear coloring.”
