Mainstage

In 2054 the party that is Earth is finally coming to an end. Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are struggling to colonize the moon, but maybe Jessica (from Wisconsin) can help with her AI research and obviously undermedicated personality. Come join these and other sad dystopian characters as we explore what the future holds. If money can't buy you happiness, maybe oppression and power can. Or is that just a different way to say "money?"
