"Milk & Honey," Dartboard Productions' inaugural show, premiered in July 2023 as a multifaceted exploration of resilience and the human spirit. Through four vignettes, each representing a season of life, this play interrogates the fundamental spark of hope that urges humanity to fight for growth and progress even in the face of tremendous adversity — the promise of spring even after the harshest of winters.
This project was originally conceptualized as a farcical presidential debate at Carnegie Mellon University’s annual Playground festival. Beyond the chaotic debate, our new vision further explores how youthful drive and passion can be crushed by the weight of economic challenges, societal expectations and political nonsense. Each vignette paints a vivid picture of humanity's struggle for meaningful change amidst a surreal and often absurd social landscape. Through satire and sincerity, "Milk & Honey" invites audiences to laugh, question, and reflect deeply on the state of humanity in today's tumultuous times.
