The Eternal Ego Festival, a brand new initiative focused on what can be learned when an individual turns the artistic lens on themselves and takes a closer look.

Ten artists will present adapted traditional pieces of theatre, originally written for multiple characters, and perform every part by themselves, through a variety of mediums, such as in-person, on digital media or combination of two. The Eternal Ego Festival projects will premiere gradually over the next year. Details of programming will be announced next week.
