About This Show

These two short one-act plays provide uncommon, hilarious and thought-provoking looks at power and corruption, politics, patriotism and freedom, ever-timely subjects in the 21st century. Written in the 1960s – a time during which playwright Slawomir Mrozek took political asylum in France, having denounced Poland’s participation in the Warsaw pact – Out at Sea is set in a lifeboat adrift at sea as three men must decide who to sacrifice and who to save in an absurd attempt for survival, while Striptease finds two identically-dressed men trapped in a situtation that forces them to face each other – and their opposing political beliefs.
