Everybody was a digital production that was done completely remotely with actors participating from all over North America. The play is based on Everyman which was a mortality play written in the 15th century. The narrative centers around relationships and values like Friendship, Kinship, Stuff, Mind, Five Senses, and Understanding who are each played as if they were real people. In the play there is also a lottery aspect in which the actors were assigned a different role to play each night at random.
