Outside In Theatre Presents the World Premiere of O: A Rhapsody in Divorce
What happens when the life you built suddenly collapses? O: A Rhapsody in Divorce, a new play by Jami Brandli and directed by Jessica Hanna, runs May 17 through June 9, 2026, with previews starting May 9 at Outside In Theatre. This play is not about a divorce, it's a play about survival, reinvention, and becoming your own home.
Reimagining The Odyssey through a modern lens, O: A Rhapsody in Divorce follows O, a successful neurobiologist in her 40s whose world is turned upside down when her husband asks for a separation, but refuses to leave their home. Displaced and untethered, O embarks on a couch-hopping journey that blends memory, science, and surreal theatricality. She discovers unconventional and magical ways to reassemble the blown-up pieces of her life as she struggles to navigate her way back toward a "new home."
