Julia C, a reading of a new play by Daniel Pink
A razor-sharp reimagining of Julius Caesar set inside a soaring AI startup. When Emor AI’s CEO slips an absolute-power clause into the company’s IPO filing, her co-founders face a brutal choice: loyalty or revolt? At once a hilarious sendup of corporate culture and a searing exploration of power in the algorithm age, Julia C asks: In a world where truth is malleable and leadership is a brand, who deserves to rule?
