WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

From gorgeous new theaters standing empty as cathedrals, to successful working actors traveling like migrant farmhands, to an arts culture unwilling to speak or listen to its own nation, Mike Daisey takes stock of the dystopian state of theater in America: a shrinking world with smaller audiences every year. Ship in freeze-dried actors from New York City? Certainly! Create generations of theater professors who have never worked in theater? Absolutely! Earn no pay and have no hope of a living wage? Sign us up! Daisey gives a darkly hilarious and truthful dissection of the art that's being made, the legacy we leave to the future, and just who it is the theater believes it's speaking to.
