Offending The Audience

At the top of Offending The Audience, a group of actors take the stage and announce that there will be no play. They are not characters. The stage does not represent another place. Time passes as it does in real life. There is no illusion. The audience is asked to abandon every expectation, to be the subject of the actors’ gaze the way that they are the subject of ours. So what will happen on stage? Offending The Audience combines caustic humor with deeply meaningful notions about theatre, life and death.
