So My Grandmother Died, Blah Blah Blah

Miami’s Mad Cat Theatre Company has been committed to creating an alternate theatrical universe for eleven years now by specializing in their own brand of irreverent and always evolving, never arriving original plays. Now Mad Cat is continuing that tradition with the Miami
Light Project which is presenting So My Grandmother Died, Blah Blah Blah.

Written and directed by Mad Cat’s founder and artistic director Paul Tei, the play is the story of Polly Chekhov, a comedy writer in Hollywood, California who comes back to Hollywood, Florida for the wake of her beloved grandmother Mary.

The play is about the deconstruction of a eulogy. A syncopated exposition of three sisters, the youngest Polly and her two older sisters. Polly has writer’s block which becomes the instigating action which is responsible for most of the conflict. Multiple characters, Polly’s eccentric family, a chorus of deconstructionists and a musician, carry you over the debris of endless cultural accumulations through a labyrinth of iconology. So put on your best blacks and head on over to The Light Box at the Goldman Warehouse because the pipes, the pipes are calling.
