Contemporarily Out of Order took the classic tale of “Where the Wild Things Are” by Maurice Sendak and gave it a modern twist. “Where the Wild Things Are” follows the story of Max, a socially inept teenager who runs away from home after being told they’re behaving like a monster. Max finds themself in a place where poverty has caused all of its inhabitants to turn into monsters acting upon their rawest emotions; hope, grief, excitement, anxiety and depression. Throughout Contemporarily Out of Order’s adaptation, we examine the human psyche and how patience and love can save you from the darkest of times.
