Managing post~CORP(or)*%aTE styles was a Calarts XDP production that took place in the Modular Theater Lobby in April 2022. Staged like a recruiting event for future brand ambassadors, MPCS is a satirical take on MLMs, or pyramid marketing schemes. Audience members learned and interacted with Soycialyfe’s six CEOs for the duration of the performance which delved deep into milk alternatives, exploring the future of “milk”, each CEO with their own agenda to win over the audience.
