In Everybody, the lottery of life is made literal: the actors’ roles, including the eponymous protagonist, are decided by lottery each night. There are 120 possible casting permutations, making it likely that the show you see is unfolding, before your eyes, for the first time. As we accompany Everybody on their journey towards death — a matter of chance on both stage and in life — we ponder the meaning of Love, Friendship, and how not to die alone.
