WHY I WANT TO FUCK RONALD REAGAN

A Psycho-Sexual Fever Dream

Inspired by JG Ballard’s “The Atrocity Exhibition”, Why I Want To Fuck Ronald Reagan was an immersive, interactive work of literary collage. The production imagined Reagan’s California as one part surrealist fantasy, one part interstate highway, and one part psych ward, with each character blazing their own path through this dystopic past.
