A Simple Life, Destroyed-after Buchner’s Woyzeck

Friday, April 10, 2026 8:00 PM - Sunday, April 19, 2026 4:00 PM (PDT)

Description

Told in eleven fluid scenes, the play follows Woyzeck and Marie—two unhoused partners struggling to survive in a world shaped by instability and the constant pressure. The stage is spare and unstable, centered on a single mobile cart that transforms in full view—from shelter to podium, clinic, and work station. These shifts mirror lives built from temporary arrangements, always subject to reconfiguration. Sound and light echo everyday digital life: notification hums, cold screen glows, and songs that interrupt rather than soothe. The cast includes Roham Sheikhani, Vicki Victoria, Donna Turner, Majd Mokhtari, and Hayedeh Doroudy Ahi.
