About this Event

BEOWULF


inspired by the Old English epic
directed by Joshua Higgason


Join us for a bold reimagining of the Old English epic Beowulf set inside a surreal corporate office where a low-level bureaucrat descends into a dreamscape of monsters, memory, and myth. Drawing on a dark satirical vision of a world ruled by surveillance, paperwork, and malfunctioning systems, the piece explores alienation, control, and mortality, as fantasy and reality hilariously collapse into one another.

Performance is a multiplier of creativity, extending far beyond the stage—to science, to engineering, to leadership. The MIT Theater program provides a dynamic space to challenge, learn, inspire, and nourish community through its groundbreaking engagement with the arts.
