WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Tom X. Chao's Can't Get Started gets its second extension. The fundamental hopelessness of making the Male/Female connection is the subject for this manifesto-laden epoch-spanning two-person play. The production is enhanced with scenes of Space Pirates, Ethnomusicology students, abstract geometric puppets, and Stone-Age stoners guaranteed to smash the preciousness of theater. Also featuring Eve Kerrigan.
