HUM
Theater Alliance
Theater Alliance proudly presents the World Premiere of Hum written by Nicholas Wardigo and directed by Artistic Director Colin Hovde and Associate Artistic Director Nathaniel Mendez. This bold new piece of theater challenges our expectations of storytelling. Set in a world filled with a constant, pervasive hum that blocks out verbal communication, Van and Eva live an uneventful life. When a stranger emerges and breaks the hum, Van and Eva must re-discover how to connect in new ways. Nothing is safe in this dangerous new world, unless the status quo can be restored…But at what cost? This contemporary allegory echoes Orwell and Asminov and packs a mighty punch.
