From the Academy Award–nominated playwright José Rivera, writer of The Motorcycle Diaries.

“A haunting meditation on what it means to be human.” — DC Metro Theater Arts

“Lyrical and thought-provoking.” — BroadwayWorld

This new play is a powerful and poetic story that explores identity, resilience, and the pursuit of hope. Blending raw emotion with lyrical storytelling, it asks urgent questions about humanity in an age where artificial intelligence is reshaping our dreams and decisions. Bold, moving, and deeply human, this play shines a light on the courage it takes to define ourselves—beyond what any algorithm can predict.

Follow the light of the full moon on these rare nighttime climbs up the 199 cast-iron spiral staircase steps to the top of the Cape May Lighthouse. Enjoy a nighttime view nearly 156 feet above the Delaware Bay and Atlantic Ocean. Interpretive panels along the climb tell stories of Lighthouse Keepers, the surrounding area, and how the lighthouse functioned historically, and are located at landings along the way. The 1859 Cape May Lighthouse is a state historic site and the third beacon on this site. Still an active aid to navigation, it was restored and is maintained by Cape May MAC (Museums+Arts+Culture). Since it opened to the public in 1988, more than 2.5 million visitors have climbed to the top, but far fewer have climbed at nighttime.

Adult $20

Child (3-12) $10

Purchase tickets from the Lighthouse Keeper the evening of the event.
