7/22 - 7/25 - ‘How To Be a GoodPerson™’ Explores Our Relationship with Social Media

8pm
The Chain Theatre
21-28 45th Rd
Long Island City, NY 11101

How to be a GoodPerson™ tells the story of Vanessa and Paul, two people searching for meaning in an environment of overwhelming stimulation. Social media is flooded with headlines that read “Bring Back Our Girls” but also “36 Ingenious Ways to Eat Peanut Butter for Breakfast”. Online users present themselves via curated snippets of themselves through Facebook and Snapchat which can capture genuine human moments but can also represent us as more successful or more superficial than they truly are. This piece explores how it is possible to differentiate the genuine from the artificial when there is so much noise!
