O’Mighty Make-Believe is a meta-theatrical, darkly-comic, psychological thriller about magic, make-believe, and the search for life’s meaning.
With dazzling speed and style, two performers harness the power of improvisation to create – and destroy – an entire lifetime together before our very eyes.
​
​
From a cruise-ship magic act,
a pirate attack, a suburban mansion, a swingers party, a church, and the woods, this rhinestone-encrusted pair will go anywhere to find 'their thing'.
A celebration and indictment of creativity and the desire for a life of meaning,
O'Mighty Make-Believe revels in the process of creation while asking what is your responsibility to your own creations? What is your responsibility to your
own life?
In 2023, O'Mighty Make-Believe was announced winner of the Rodney Seaborn Playwrights Award.
