The World Maybe Flat

Set entirely in their apartment, the play unfolds through sharp, emotionally charged dialogue that blends humor, tension, and vulnerability. As the two clash over LGBTQ+ identity, politics, and what it means to heal, deeper truths begin to surface—about survivor’s guilt, internalized shame, and the isolating experience of carrying trauma in a world that increasingly expects silence. 

Rather than revisiting the tragedy itself, The World May Be Flat explores the aftermath: the disorientation of being unable to forget while everything around you moves forward —and what happens when a broader cultural and political climate seeks to silence LGBTQ+ identity altogether. The play explores the meaning of memory and memorialization, giving voice to the burden of carrying grief in a culture where some believe there is a “correct” way to mourn —and where expressing that grief on one’s own terms can lead to judgment, silencing, and attack. 

The play offers no easy answers. Instead, it presents a deeply human portrait inspired by lived experiences. It asks what it means to survive—and what healing looks like when the world has already decided you should be fine.
