The Upside
The Upside is a piece of devised theater, created and performed by the YTG summer ensemble. This multimedia work was presented as a livestreamed performance with no in-person audience, during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
What do world-bending love, a kickass science fiction concept, a touch of Greek mythology, the dark side of late-stage capitalism, and surrealism have in common? Well, they’re all part of The Upside.
