Event Description

With biting humor and stark earnestness, How to Become Human in 5 Years follows the apish Red Peter from his imprisonment in a cage to Broadway's Theatre Stages. Adapted from Kafka's "A Report to an Academy", this celebrated one-man show subtly layers dark comedy, social satire and Kafka's equivocal language all to ask the question: What makes us human?

"This is a TED Talk like you’ve never seen before" (Showbill Canada)
"Mesmerizing performance of Shea" (Showbill Canada)
"this is a thought-provoking, entertaining and worthwhile piece of theatre" (Checktheprogram)
