Test Site No. 11: Apocalypse

Following the tradition of street-corner preachers, stereotypically seen holding signs warning that “The End is Near,” the Semi-Tropic Spiritualists invert this model, becoming anti-apocalyptic messengers. In a theatrical set made of artificial flames and a dramatic text backdrop, we present a lecture on the history of failed End Times prophecies, while asking our audience to participate with us in questioning and working against the desire for an apocalyptic end.
