Deadfish, Idaho is a hilarious look into the life of a hacker living in Silicon Valley.  he performance featured many staging and set innovations in order to combine technology and theatrical conventions. The piece was revised constantly throughout the process, almost right up to its formal debut onstage. Abbott spent his sabbatical of the previous year researching coders in Silicon Valley in order to properly depict their environment and lifestyle.
