The loneliness of pandemic life has been especially acute for many immigrants, who faced isolation and uncertainty as borders closed, employment disappeared and travel was restricted. Roundabout is a response to this isolation, embracing the possibilities of virtual theater to foster artistic collaboration and intimacy (both within and beyond the theatrical community).

Twelve immigrant artists from different countries bring their talent and expertise to the project of creating theatrical “portraits” of two immigrants who entrusted the group with their stories. Roundabout combines interview footage with a virtual theater piece, written and staged in response to and inspired by the subjects' stories.
