Ubu Roi

Ubu Roi is a bizarre and comic retelling of Shakespeare’s MacBeth: Pere Ubu, an oafish, barely ranking civil servant is persuaded by his shrewish wife to kill the king of Poland and usurp the throne. Pere Ubu is magnificently stupid and appallingly unfit to rule anything, so his eventual ascension is a farce. He becomes a violent and incompetent dictator who kills his subjects, destroys the economy, and makes war arbitrarily.There are two special late night shows on Saturday October 26 and November 2 at 10:30 pm
