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.
