Regional premiere: Sept 16 – Oct 1, 2016
Directed by Joseph Megel
Produced by Manbites Dog Theater
in association with StreetSigns
Tonight, Walt is going to read you a story he wrote – a story about his last days on Earth, his ungrateful workers, and his suicidally uncooperative rodents. A story about the City of Tomorrow he’s going to build if people will just get out of his way. A story about his family and everyone who loves him so much, and about how sad they’re all going to be when he’s gone. All aboard for a darkly hilarious – and oddly resonant – theme park ride into the head of a a visionary 20th century artist, businessman, and world-class narcissist. Welcome to the Craziest Place on Earth!
Featuring: David Berberian, Lakeisha Coffey, Elisabeth Lewis Corley*, Derrick Ivey
