So many people have asked me what this show is about. I am always at a loss. I usually mutter something about exploring theatrical styles, ambiguous dialogues, and polka-dotted underwear, which is all true. But that doesn't come close to this craziness.
Who would have know that two years ago that some late night silliness with a dear friend would lead to this? The version of Green Eggs & Ham we came up with haunted me at a late hour last semester, and here things are!
Perhaps that is what best describes this show: the goofy ccreativity that only comes with sleep deprivation. Those ungodly-houred moments when everything is hysterical. Those horride jokes you can't help but to laugh. Bugs Bunny. Bert and Ernie. The gigglebug.
So, shrug off the "I'm too sophisticated to laugh". Revel in the incredible human experience we call amusement. Here's to Groucho glasses and rubber chickens!
