Cosmic Trigger (play)

Cosmic Trigger (the play), by Daisy Eris Campbell, is a biography of Robert Anton Wilson based on his book Cosmic Trigger and "an art-magick journey" through Chapel Perilous, a dangerous occultist crossing point from which one either emerges paranoid or agnostic.

Structured as three one-hour acts, the play dances between two timelines – the writing of The Illuminatus! Trilogy in the 1960s and the staging of it by Ken Campbell in the 1970s; and also between two realms – real life biography and fictional segments from Illuminatus.
