A show gets canceled. A fandom melts down.
Ghost Light Theatre Company is thrilled to present Half World by Sean Swenson (O’Neill semi-finalist, 2025), directed by Alexandra Rogers.
Through the twisty rhizomes of online chatter and Discord servers, internet friends Bianca and Izzy lament the loss of their pop-culture tether, before the internet pushes them in different and unexpected directions. An excavation and interrogation of fandom culture, Half World explores loneliness, the treacherous hive mind of the internet, and the consequences of writing gay fan fiction with your best friend. It asks: Where do you put the love you cannot feel for yourself? And what happens when you put it into a thing that cannot love you back?
