Funny, touching, and relatable, La Egoísta is a comedy about being selfish in pursuit of your dreams, but selfless with the people you love.

🎭 How are the choices we make during our lives judged at the end of our lives?

As he reflects on the decisions he’s made and the people he’s impacted throughout his life, he is judged for it all—for better or for worse—in a thrilling and beautiful tale of redemption. 🎫 The Duat runs through June 23rd at Philadelphia Theatre Company.
