Marjorie Prime

Show Description:

What if the people we loved could stay with us, even after memory begins to fade?

In Jordan Harrison’s Pulitzer Prize finalist Marjorie Prime, 85-year-old Marjorie spends her days with Walter Prime, an artificial intelligence recreation of her late husband as she remembers him in his younger years. As Walter learns the stories of their life together, memory, truth, grief, and technology begin to blur.

Fresh from its recent Broadway premiere, Marjorie Prime is an intimate and quietly haunting exploration of what we choose to remember, what we choose to forget, and how the stories we tell shape the people we love.

This production marks the first full theatrical production from Wild Threads Theatre, a new company bringing intimate, thought-provoking theatre to Wild Oscar’s and the Performing Arts Makerspace. With a focus on storytelling that invites conversation and connection, Wild Threads creates work meant to be experienced up close.
