Occupy This: Tales of an Accidental Activist

Comedic Storyteller “Reverend Nuge” went to Occupy Wall Street and Occupy Detroit just to carry funny signs.  But a funny thing happened on the way to the Revolution – he started to believe in it.  The next thing you know he’s camping with crack addicts, marching with anarchists, burying a friend and writing this show.

“Nugent has grown a smart show here, full of humor and big ideas, but it’s a blossom with even deeper roots than we expected.” – DC Theatre Scene
