More for Your Money Festival

Working Man’s Clothes Productions presents the More for Your Money Festival at American Place Theatre, featuring the world premiere of three new one-act plays by award winning playwrights: Marvelous Misadventures of William Zzylk: A Polite Dissent by Paul John DeSena, directed by David Carr-Berry; Green by Bekah Brunstetter, directed by Isaac Byrne; and Intercourse by Brandon Koebernick, directed by Gene Hughes.

Marvelous Misadventures… is an allegorical comedy with music dealing with the draft, U.S. Foreign Policy, and Israeli/Palestinian Conflict. As the last eligible soldier of Propitiam, Billy Zzylk must deal with Kings, Sandboxes, and spontaneous musical numbers in his quest to return home to his wife and start a family. Green is a surrealist/tragi-comedy about a soldier recently returned from Iraq trying to regain his life and sense of normalcy. No atttempts at political statements here, people, just a real story with real people and, well, talking guns and cigarettes. Intercourse revolves around two roommates, Zach and Caleb, who have just graduated from college. The play deals with their issues with relationships, one in the beginning stages and the other having been involved for several years, and their coping with making the transition into the real world.

Green and Marvelous Misadventures… run together starting April 28th-May 8th. Intercourse runs May 12th-May 15th.
