Set during the final days of Georges Danton, the play follows his fall from French revolutionary hero to condemned traitor.

The video design functions as artificial light, a constructed world built with four live cameras, and ultimately, the guillotine itself. The set is divided into World 1 and World 2, separated by a kabuki drop. In World 1, where the stage is narrow and long, live cameras positioned stage left and right capture two actors at opposite ends and merge their images onto a crack-shaped projection in the abyss. In World 2, framed by a rocky structure, a flying screen descends and slices through space like a blade, turning video into an agent of death.
