ABOUT THE SHOW
Four twenty-something millennials at the precipice of the end of the world (or perhaps, the start of a new one... who’s to say?). Lost, unhappy, and definitely drunk, they make a deal with the devil that leaves them with a mysterious briefcase supplying them with an endless amount of cocaine. Pure chaos ensues. A millennial dark comedy/satire that explores power politics, addiction, and toxic masculinity in its various forms. It asks how far we are willing to go for success and what we are willing to give up and forgive in the name of friendship.
