About This Show

A sinister, deeply sensuous allegory, Brainpeople exposes the desperation of three women as they cope with isolation and violence in an apocalyptic future.
The play opens provocatively, with three women beginning a bizarre banquet-the pièce-de-resistance of which is the steaming, exposed viscera of a tiger.
Throughout the course of an evening fraught with revelations about the dark and surreal pasts of each of the play’s characters, the mood of desperation heightens, shedding light on the shadowy world of political and emotional turmoil the play depicts.
