The Number 14

The Number 14 makes a return stop on 42nd Street this spring with a boisterous bus ride audiences will never forget. An ingenious farce about the variety of personalities that congregate on a city bus, the Drama Desk Award-winning production by Axis Theatre Company features six actors playing over 60 larger than life characters who are sometimes goofy, occasionally elegant, and always hilarious. Somersaulting old ladies, ballet-dancing business men and turbo-talking girl scouts all hitch a ride on one of Vancouver’s real-life bus routes and capture the absurdity and diversity of city dwellers’ daily commute. Combining commedia dell’Arte, puppetry and music, The Number 14 is the one bus audiences will want to take again and again and again.
