Should I believe the science experts, the politicians, the conspiracy theorists, or my mom?
Do race, gender, and age change my risk and my realities? Should they?
Do I isolate forever, and only date over FaceTime? Or do I ignore it all and party on? Or what?
Beyond the coronavirus itself lies a list of questions, plus a kaleidoscope of emotions: denial, panic, disconnection - even, surprisingly, peace. Then there's the fantasy funride of testing...
It all collapses into chaos, absurdity, and, finally, humor. Because if you can't laugh, then what?
Join the theatre students of Old Dominion University as we explore the full spectrum of symptoms and hysteria of COVID-19 IN REAL LIFE.
Warning: This is so NOT a PBS special.
