Further information on the ambitions for the work:
We would like the work to be seen, whether by additional performances of this production or further iterations of the play/direction. We believe the show's themes speak universally to the industrialized world, as we work to discover new ways of integrating the demands of making a living with a full life worth living.
We’ll Get Back To You - Why is this woman named Viva applying for a job? She doesn’t even know what they do here! Bestselling author Rob Bell’s new play begins with this disruptive presence, and gradually begins to reveal what happens when people own every square inch of their lives. At turns hysterically funny, deeply moving, and ultimately subversive, this is a play for anyone who has had a job in the industrialized world and wonders if maybe the whole system needs a change. Directed by Tony Award nominee Kristin Hanggi (Rock of Ages).
Touring Notes
We would provide a projections/sound cue pack, lighting plot and costume plot.
Previous Touring Experience
We have some experience organizing small tours in the midwest United States, and this production has already been remounted in a number of venues; it's built to travel and adapt.
Notes for Screen Development
The play is written cinematically, and can be easily adapted to the screen. Our director is also an experienced film and television director and producer, having adapted several works for the screen.
