For reasons unknown, a girl refuses to eat, drink, or leave her apartment. As she digs in her heels, an unusual cast of characters fills her isolated world—some to encourage her, some to confuse her. As she delves deeper into the battle against her own paranoia, the question remains: Why?

When an intergalactic alien organization threatens to eradicate humanity, one person is selected at random to plead for our survival. Earthling is a testament of lived experience, written by and about real, live humans. If it were up to you to justify your entire species’ existence, what would you say?

This event is open to Berklee students, faculty, and staff with a valid Berklee ID, and invited guests only.

Ineffable is an experiment of making the universal and mundane epics of adolescents into a tangible catharsis of collaboration, color, breath, and movement, extracting the unspeakable and unspoken highs and lows of coming into a splintered existence—a collective confession of divine naïvete.
