That’s honestly brilliant. The way the Neo-Futurists turned something so simple into a real, physical experience of trust is kind of unsettling in the best way. It makes the message land way harder than if they’d just said it outright. You literally felt the vulnerability, the risk, and then the relief, which is exactly the point. Also, the fact that it happened in a room full of strangers in Chicago makes it even more powerful. That’s the kind of theatre people remember for years.👌
