But when their nonstop flight to Beijing quite literally refuses to stop—trapping them in an endless time loop—reality begins to fracture, pulling them through visions of magpies, ideal selves, and the echoes of what-has-been and what-could-be. Blending sci-fi, mythology, and existential philosophy, *while True* is a meditation on the recursive nature of becoming. *For any accessibility needs, please contact Theater, Dance & Media at tdm\[at\]fas.harvard.edu.* **About the** [**TDM Senior Thesis Festival**](https://tdm.fas.harvard.edu/current-productions#thesisfestival) Theater, Dance & Media’s Senior Thesis Festival returns for its third year, with two weeks of readings and performances in March.
