Loosely inspired by Dostoevsky’s Crime And Punishment, the play In Pursuit Of (Written by Zoé Soteres) follows Theo, a young man navigating life in an unfamiliar city while balancing the pressures of college & a dead-end data entry job. He toils under the shadow of a younger, more successful boss, who humiliates him at every turn, pushing Theo to adopt the morally ambiguous teachings of his academic advisor. As the demands of home, work, and school intensify, Theo becomes fixated on securing a promotion and outmaneuvering his boss, even if it means compromising his own ethical boundaries. In the meantime, he encounters a myriad of characters who challenge his notions of right and wrong, ultimately leading him on a tumultuous journey of atonement and self-discovery.
