"Everybody"
by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins
Everybody is summoned by God
to make account of their life before passing into the unknown afterlife.
Everybody solicits Friendship, Kinship, and Worldly Goods to accompany them,
only to discover, "you can't take it with you." Jacobs-Jenkins' play,
"a very meta and saucy adaptation" (Time Out NY) of a 15th
century Morality Play and tells the same allegorical and thought provoking
story only with humor, modern theatrics, and contemporary commentary on stage representation.
