A meta-play, A Simulacrum explores what happened when illusionist Steve Cuiffo showed Hnath a series of magic tricks while the pair were collaborating on Dana H (the play about Hnath's mother, which played on Broadway in fall 2021). The piece stars Cuiffo, and features direction by Hnath.
A Simulacrum features scenic design by Louisa Thompson, costume design by Qween Jean, lighting design by Tyler Micoleau, and sound design by Mikhail Fiksel.
