About the Project

Are you carrying a burden no one notices? A chronic illness? A broken heart? A lost soul? Well if you’re reading this…you’re the problem. But you’re also the solution. Join Mara Dorjan for her highly coveted health and wellness seminar! Learn how ancient knowledge may be the key to modern healing.

What begins as a seminar promising a “secret protocol” for long-term wellness quickly unravels into a lifestyle so preposterous it begs the question: who the hell would actually fall for this?

This solo dark comedy explores the dangerous overlap between cult of personality and the commodification of the chronically ill. By exposing the absurdity of both holistic and mainstream medicine business models, it becomes less and less clear which industry has been empowering the other.
