Humans: The Rational Animal

Conceived before the pandemic. Released into cyberspace today for your pleasure.

'Humans' was originally performed on the House of Yes stage in January 2020 at @nateandhila's "Naughty for Nature" show. The involuntary hibernation of the pandemic has inspired us to revisit this piece - reimagining it for the screen. Despite the challenges of the pandemic, life goes on - and where there is life, there is art.
