From the suburban kitchen tables to a futurist funeral parlor, a marine science institute in the middle of the night to a techno-dating service, the void of thought to the chaos of communication, the question is the same...is progress moving us in the right direction?
Written for the New Jersey Science and Engineering Festival, We'll See Tomorrow depicts a variety of people struggling with their place in a world altering and growing faster than any other time in history, trying to discover where responsibility and the human spirit factor on this exponential curve.
A futuristic, cutting edge, state of the art meld of comedy and drama featuring fifteen characters portrayed by three actors, We'll See Tomorrow promises to be a whirlwind of science, madness, and whatever happens to fill the space in between.
"For the past three years we have been working with StrangeDog Theatre to help them present their special brand of theatrical presentation and performance," said John Pietrowski, Artistic Director. "We're very excited to host their new evening by Ben Clawson, and looking forward to what the evening has to offer. They always put on a great provocative evening."
