OT: 'Duel Of The Linguist Mages' @ Annex Theatre

If you're wondering why I haven't been posting for the past several weeks (WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DIDN'T NOTICE??), it's because I've written & directed a new play opening this weekend - which you should come see!

DUEL OF THE LINGUIST MAGES is a dark new sci-fi comedy about two researchers who learn to hack the very structure of language at a deeper level than ever before. Their discovery of “power morphemes” – tiny particles of meaning that mean much more than they should – turns out to be unexpectedly dangerous, and shockingly easy to weaponize. As the two researchers gain unprecedented linguistic power, they turn against each other in a struggle to control their new technology. A hapless computer programmer is unexpectedly caught in the crossfire – can he stop the spread of “power morphemes” before all of human civilization is brought to its knees? Who will survive the DUEL OF THE LINGUIST MAGES? Join us at Annex Theatre in Seattle to find out!

The show runs Fridays & Saturdays, Jan 21 - Feb 19. We're sold out for opening night, but if you make it for any other night in the run, please track me down and say hi!

this seriously makes me wish i lived anywhere near washington state. language and meaning, sci-fi and technology, and the death of civilization...so many of my favorite things in one package!

This looks awesome! It reminds me of Snow Crash and Anathem by Neal Stephenson, who also lives in Seattle as I recall. I'd be there except I live on the east coast.
