How do we find meaning in an upside-down world? What actions should we take? Do our actions even matter? “Meaningless” presents the unedited, uncensored, ancient book of Ecclesiastes in a one-act, one-man performance packed with timeless riddles and timely wisdom. The show makes its Missouri debut in a limited run from July 22-30 as part of the 18th Annual KC Fringe Festival.

From wine to wealth, concubines to snake charming, “Meaningless” questions and explores the meaning of everything under the sun. This modern presentation of a 2,000-year-old meditation on the human experience weaves the universal themes of wisdom, foolishness, pleasure, and suffering into an unforgettable live performance that is at once funny, pensive, and tragic.

“Meaningless” is performed by Oklahoma City-based actor Rodney Brazil and directed by Emily Etherton. Rodney Brazil is an Oklahoma City-based, writer, director, performer, and producer. Original works as a playwright include All My Ex-Boyfriends are Gay, Worthy Causes, The Ultra-Conservative Theatre Summit, and Naked Brunch, which streamed live at the 2020 Theatre Crude Fringe Festival.

The KC Fringe Festival is a 16-day explosion of unjuried, uncensored performing and visual arts that features performers and creators from all over the world. Fringe Festival KC is the biggest celebration of arts and culture in the Kansas City metropolitan region.
