Fatso Goes to McDonald’s (and other short plays)

DESCRIPTION OF PIECE

This selection of short plays by H. Avery explores themes of trans-ness, disability, and the surreality of present conditions in America.

Featuring FATSO GOES TO MCDONALD’S (recently published with Smith and Kraus), DO NOT RESUSCITATE (winner of Cypress Productions’ New Plays Now 2024/ finalist with Spectrum Theatre Ensemble) and a new premiere, these selected shorts turn big ideas into bite-sized comedic chops. See you in McDonald’s purgatory.
