Website Ego Death Theatre Collective
Beyond the end of the world, where trees are dying and sunlight must not be allowed to touch human skin, three teenaged boys survive by reinventing a culture they never really knew. They cling to the shreds of civility by playing Daddy, Mommy and Junior, but the game has worn quite thin. And just when it seems that things can’t get any worse, a stranger arrives with a terrible secret that changes everything. Treefall is a tragicomic exploration of gender identity and the meaning of family.
