THE AGE OF CYNICISM
–OR– KARAOKE NIGHT AT THE HOG
Can a person be both
a cynic and a romantic at the same time? Only
in America…
Gary Loves Debbie, who's married to Don, who's
sleeping with Ellen, who's just been fixed up
with Gary. Come celebrate the fall of Western
Civilization with these four mismatched 29-year-olds.
When the cynicism gets too heady, they cut loose
at Karaoke Night at The Hog: the only place in
town you're hauled up on stage to sing your heart
out…then applauded for how well you fake
it!
• JEFF RECOMMENDED
“This over-the-top
comedy by award-winning author Keith Huff offers
audience-participation karaoke (voluntary), archly
literate dialogue and a sharp edge that slashes
at trust and fidelity in marriage and friendship.
Intentionally artificial, The Age of Cynicism
is theater at ‘play’…Director
Ann Filmer plays up the artifice with staging
somewhere between sitcom gone ballistic and burlesque
Edward Albee.” – Jonathan
Abarbanel, Windy City Times
Chris Cordon, Amy Dunlap,
Anish Jethmalani, Wendi Weber and Patrick Brennan
