The SMASH hit of The Comic Book Theater Festival returns! The award-winning, best-selling comics series Action Philosophers is adapted for the stage by award-winning playwright Crystal Skillman and directed by John Hurley as the lives and thoughts of history's A-list brain trust leap to the stage in manic, hilarious fashion.

Come meet PLATO-Wrestling Superstar of Ancient Greece! NIETZSCHE-The Original Übermensch! The torrid love affairs of Ayn Rand! And more! From Impetuous Theater Group who brought you Hack! an I.T. Spaghetti Western (a hit at both last year's Too Soon festival and the Vampire Cowboys Saloon Series) Action Philosophers! is a must see, not to mention cheaper than a liberal arts degree-and a whole lot more fun, too!
