Burnout Paradise · Tucson · Oct 9, 2026

Five performers take the stage, four of them running on treadmills for the duration, driven by one relentless countdown. What begins as a simple wager between performer and audience spirals into a breathless battle against exhaustion, expectation and time itself. Part comedy, part endurance feat and part performance art, Burnout Paradise skewers the absurd pace of contemporary life with razor-sharp wit and physical daring. The result is euphoric mayhem: a visceral, joyful celebration of our collective urge to keep going, no matter the cost.
