The Comfort Illusion is a solo aural performance that highlights the effects our everyday actions can have on the environment. Through mixed media storytelling using sound and lighting, Adams narrates the life of "The Overkiller" a fictional villian who negatively impacts the earth and the lives of the people around him through smaller everyday decisions. This character constantly prioritizes convenience over care and responsibility (ie. throwing trash out the window, ordering takeout with plastic utensils).

It is through this narration and caricature of a villain that the audience can see where they have been sacrificing the environment for their own comfort.
