Welcome to the year 2077, where survival has put humanity to the test, and distance means more than miles. Visionary playwright and director Tiago Rodrigues returns to BAM with an urgent, unforgettable new work exploring separation, communication, and the consequences of choices we make today. As humanity struggles to survive on earth, a daughter chooses life in exile on Mars, leaving her father behind to grapple with love, loss, and the challenge of maintaining connections across unnavigable distances.
Performing on a visually stunning rotating stage, Alison Dechamps and Adama Diop make their BAM debuts in the North American premiere of the 2025 Festival d’Avignon’s breakout hit. Known to BAM audiences for powerful previous offerings By Heart (2021) and Catarina and the Beauty of Killing Fascists (2024), Rodrigues extends his winning streak of bold, provocative theatrical events with this timely experience that bridges generations, planets, and the space between two hearts.
