Fuse Offers 2-for-1 Tix To TRAGEDY Through 4/4

By: Mar. 12, 2009

Fuse knows that times are hard... but everyone still deserves a night out and a chance to get a way from their worries. So we're offering 2-for-1 tickets to TRAGEDY:a tragedy, a comedy about the news, death and the meaning of life.

Marty Hughley of the Oregonian says about the show, "The young Fuse Theatre Ensemble puts a deadpan spin on Eno's language to hilarious effect".

So, grab a friend and come laugh at the tragedy of it all for roughly the same price as a movie ticket. Don't you deserve it? After all. . . we're all in this together.

TRAGEDY: a tragedy
written by Will Eno

The sun - despite its shining record - has finally set. Reporters descend in a flurry with questions and commentary, while the governor urges calm. Constance At The Home has some "daddy issues;" John In The Field really, really, likes dogs; Michael, Legal Advisor, can't sit still; and Frank In The Studio apparently would like a glass of milk. Meanwhile the news has to be covered.

TRAGEDY: a tragedy may not be what you think. It's funny and satricial but it's also a cleverly written discourse on the nature of human existence. As playwright Will Eno says, ". . . the whole play is pretty much about Death and Unknowing."

This show is appropriate for middle schoolers and older children interested in theater, ideas and the media.

TRAGEDY:a tragedy is produced by special arrangement with the Mark Christian Subias Agency, New York
