In a zoo in Holland, a modern day Macbeth unfolds. Hominid is based on the true story of conspiracy, murder and suicide captured by Frans de Waal, PhD, in Chimpanzee Politics.

Future Life
Out of Hand is currently working with International Theatres on re-imagining the piece and taking it out into the world. We are researching possible venues in the Netherlands for a site-specific version of the piece. We are also speaking with Japanese theater companies and the Laboratory of Human Evolution Studies at Kyoto University. If you are interested in helping HOMINID grow or would like to talk about a future collaboration, please contact Adam Fristoe - adam@outofhandtheater.com.
