A Dance to the End of the World

Directed by Soheil Parsa  |  Illustrations by Josh Murdock

A time of plague, in a time before modern technologies.  A horribly contagious and deadly disease is spreading across the country. Quarantining is taking its toll on the populous. There are those who are willing to pay any price for protection from the sickness, and those who will take advantage of that desperation for their own gain. A father is desperate to protect his young daughter but becomes entangled in a priest’s plan to use the plague for profit. And the angel of death is witness to it all. But amidst the despair, the girl and the angel strike their own deal -- a deal that will set one of them free.

This gripping play is presented as an audio drama, accompanied by a stunning digital book of illustrations for each scene by local Indigenous tattoo artist Josh Murdock. Listen to the play, explore the book of art, or enjoy them together!
