Factory Theatre presents a Tiny Bear Jaws production

Non-binary computer programmer Basil (they/them) wakes to a new world and devastating loss. They spend the next three years wandering an eerily quiet world searching for loved ones, building a virtual assistant (Orchid), and creating a 90s-inspired “musical” about their life. After months of preparation, today’s the premiere, but not everything goes as planned.

Using live music, dance, and video, I Don’t Even Miss You is a bold exploration of grief, love, artificial intelligence, and legacy that asks how gender, identity, and family can exist with no one to perceive them.

A dystopian pop “solo” show featuring Elena Belyea, winner of the 2023 Betty Award for Outstanding Lead Performance in a Musical. This is the second stop in the national tour of Tiny Bear Jaws’ multidisciplinary new work, I Don’t Even Miss You.

Don’t even dare miss this show. I’m serious.
