A sly satire about a community determined to agree—no matter the cost.

Fresh from Broadway, this uproariously funny drama is set in Berkeley, California’s ultra-progressive Eureka Day School, where every decision is made by consensus. But when a mumps outbreak hits, the school’s carefully cultivated culture of inclusiveness spirals into chaos. As parents and board members clash over vaccines, personal freedoms, and viral misinformation, a community built on open-minded ideals implodes. Wildly relevant and bitingly funny, this 2025 Tony Award-winning satire tackles one of the defining questions of our time: how do you build consensus when no one can agree on the truth?

“An invigorating shot in the arm.”
