Upintheair Theatre presents the world premiere of DEAD DRONE, a groundbreaking speculative-fiction play that delves into a future shaped by environmental collapse, digital obsession, and the struggle for connection. Written by David Mott and directed by Tamara McCarthy, DEAD DRONE runs from April 11 to 19 at the Russian Hall.

In a world where wildfires rage, air quality deteriorates, and pollinators have vanished, humankind’s citizens remain confined indoors, endlessly scrolling their feeds in search of escape. In a desperate bid to save the planet, a subrace of bee-humans is created to replace lost pollinators. As worker bees struggle for connection, the next wave of influencers rises, fueled by technology, addiction, and the search for love.

DEAD DRONE examines the impact of digital consumerism and societal control, questioning what it means to love in an age dominated by social media and substance dependence.
