THE RECURSION OF A MOTH
THE RECURSION OF A MOTH
Cellunova is presenting a full production of The Recursion of a Moth written by Brandon Zang and directed by Seonjae Kim as part of our 2026 NOVA Lab programming.
🌕 SYNOPSIS
On the Moon, Icarus dreams of soup. Across the ocean, Mikey dreams of war. At Purdue, Chrys dreams of a yellow house. In a future where time travel has become as mundane as bureaucracy, three descendants of a diaspora try to find a corner in the universe to call home. When their efforts threaten to change the events of a predetermined timeline, they must find a way to break their destructive, cyclical realities; or face the violent, memory-destroying consequences of the Reset.
