Pandora's Shut-The-Box Game
​
​written & created by Max Koh
a staged reading presented by Dacha Theatre

Hildy is trying to beat the shut-the-box game. Everyone keeps telling them that it’s a dumb pub game designed to keep drunk people occupied.
Evelyn is trying to stay calm. Her mom keeps calling and she’s afraid if she picks it up it will only end in disaster. So, she’s busying herself with thoughts of mushrooms, corvids, and Hildy’s entertaining determination to beat that stupid game.
Unfortunately, the World Government has decided to eradicate humanity at 8pm tonight.
Hildy has about 90 minutes to win.
The phone rings again.
​
