The Herald at Buddies in Bad Times Theatre

An It Could Still Happen production in partnership with Buddies

Ancient Greece / right here + now

The plan will always feel like a mistake. Practice the mistake.

A lecture on Antonio Banderas’ astrological chart, a chorus questioning their calling, and a long walk in a small mortal body. Jill Connell’s poetics work backward, interlacing Greek myth and the grindset, trying to figure out how we got here. The Herald navigates the choreography of labour as it asks us for faith and gives us something like meaning, or at least a new way of paying attention. By the end of the play, all of us will know how to be in Shoppers Drug Mart, wondering how to handle time, and what will happen to all the work we do not make.
