In We’re Gonna Die, provocative theater artist Young Jean Lee explores human vulnerability with her hilariously disorienting signature style. Surrendering her usual practice of casting larger-than-life superstars, Lee sets out to make a show that any ordinary person could perform. Using herself as a guinea pig, non-performer Lee takes the stage herself along with her band, Future Wife, to tell stories and sing songs about our shared human weakness and failure. Join Lee and Future Wife for an evening of heartbreak, despair, aging, sickness, and death. You may be miserable, but you won’t be alone.
