Sunrise Sessions
Congratulations, humanity - you did it! We solved scarcity. Food, water, energy, and shelter? Infinite. Everyone has what they need. But instead of utopia, things are… weird. The old rules don’t work. People are restless. Governments are scrambling to justify their existence. The economy? Well, what even is an economy when everything is abundant? This thought experiment throws us 50 years into a post-scarcity world where we wrestle with the real challenges of abundance. How do people find purpose when survival isn’t the game anymore? Does ambition still exist? How do we decide who gets what when there's no pressing need to fight over resources? And do we actually want to live in a world without scarcity, or does struggle make us who we are? This isn’t a history lesson. It’s a test run of the future. And you, the audience, are here to help figure out how to make it work (or why it might all go horribly wrong).
