Forged in Factory Theater’s workshop, Radical Futures showcases a genre not often explored on the Factory stage. In a failing dive bar, two estranged friends try to reconnect over hallucinogenic cocktails that trigger visions of tomorrow. As these sci-fi visions grow wilder and more intense, one question looms large: Does their friendship have a future? B.Z Florida’s play is a flight of science fiction about the relationships of today and different futures of tomorrow.

The regular performance schedule is Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 3 p.m. An understudy performance is scheduled for Sunday, November 15 at 3 p.m., with an Industry Night performance following on Monday, November 16 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are on sale for $30.
