Hospital 2005 occurs at the height of this imminent epidemic. A jet pilot lives in a city where H5N1 has reduced the population by 30%. Denying that he has contracted the virus, he gets so ill he is transported to a Quarantine Hospital with thousands of other people who have only a few days to live. H5N1 becomes the language of his terminal coma, a cerebral system through which he attempts to decipher the conflicts of his failed, lonely, finite existence. Axis Company's episodic play Hospital examines the interior life of a man in a terminal coma. Entering this state in a different way every year, the audience travels with him as he lives out his last few days roaming the vast, dark interiors of his own brain. Although Hospital is a serial play, each evening can be viewed separately as a self-contained, short play. Directed by Randy SharpCinematography by Dan Hersey
