Proportionality

Proportionality is a climate theater show set in the perhaps-not-so-distant future where a geoengineering company, funded by the fossil fuel industry, has built luxurious residences for the ultra-rich (and top-level workers at the company) to live shielded from extreme temperatures. After a party, two employees face the utmost disruption as they seek intimacy: an activist has hacked into the building’s temperature control system, trapping them inside as heat levels rise. Over the course of a spiraling night, the two men are forced to confront not only the activist’s demands, but their complicity in the system—and each other’s moral limits.
