Hospital Overload is an absurd comedy, a back-lash on 1980’s self help seminars that provoke the idea that people need to be more than what they are. The patients are the victims of that idea so that they have exaggerated what little power they have in their lives to give their lives meaning. Doc’s Life Simplification Seminar makes the audience realize that happiness is derived from simplicity. During the time at the institutions the Overlords’ minds are diverted from taking over the world by using arts, crafts, and dance therapy.
