The doctor explains that each is here willingly, and that they are all being compensated for their participation in a research study. Will the assigned attribute of each participant affect their behavior when under extreme duress?

You'll hear homage to some of the most famous lines from the world's best-known and beloved plays performed at breakneck speed.
