A theatrical performance of Ecclesiastes is making its Colorado premiere after recently debuting last month in Atlanta, Georgia. This funny and poignant show can be seen from June 23-26 as part of the Denver Fringe Festival. “Meaningless” presents the unedited, uncensored book of Ecclesiastes, packed with ancient riddles and unexpected wisdom. From money to concubines to snake charming, this text tackles the meaningless existence of everything under the sun. Discover why this book has inspired everyone from Shakespeare to Tolstoy to Samuel Beckett.

Ecclesiastes is considered a controversial book by many Jewish and Christian scholars. While filled with poetic observations on life, it’s also pessimistic and peppered with paradoxes. From wisdom to foolishness, suffering, and pleasure, Ecclesiastes tackles it all. “Meaningless” is performed by Oklahoma City-based actor Rodney Brazil, and Denver-based actress Claire Powers. Whether you are religious or not, you’ll be intrigued by this 2000-year-old meditation on the human experience, performed live in Denver for the first time ever.

Rodney Brazil performs in the show Meaningless, an unedited stage version of Ecclesiastes.
