"Why Torture is Wrong, and the People who Love Them"
Rehearses Dec-Jan 2012/13
Runs Jan 11-Feb 10; can extend until Feb 24
"Why Torture Is Wrong, and the People Who Love Them" tells the story
of a young woman in crisis: Is her new husband, whom she married when
drunk, a terrorist? Or just crazy? Or both? Is her father's hobby of
butterfly collecting really a cover for his involvement in a shadow
government? Does her mother go to the theater frequently to seek
mental escape, or is she just insane? Add in a minister who directs
porno, and a ladylike operative whose underwear just won't stay up,
and this black comedy will make us laugh all the way to the
waterboarding room.
