In this bold re-imagining of Jean Paul Sartre's classic play, three newly deceased characters find themselves in the worst imaginable type of afterlife: an endless Zoom-style meeting. This fresh new translation by Vancouver-based theatre artist Cory Haas dissects the sense of disconnection - and desire to connect - that the COVID pandemic has left us with. While the characters interact and reveal the sins of their pasts, the video-conferencing platform from hell plays with their desires and affections, driving them to the conclusion that hell is indeed other people. Especially other people in the meeting.
