No Exit (Fall 2021)
By Jean-Paul Sartre
Translated by Paul Bowles
Directed by Cassie Hartmann
Produced by Sophie Thorel and Becky Lee
A mysterious valet ushers three people into a room with no mirrors, no windows, and no exit. While their past lives fade behind them, an eternity of damnation lies ahead. What they soon discover is that hell isn’t fire and brimstone at all – it’s other people. No Exit is a darkly comedic, gripping drama about human relationships and the choices we can’t escape.
No Exit is a French existentialist play written by philosopher Jean-Paul Sarte in 1944. In this production, the show was adapted to be in the round and include elements of audience immersion and participation.
