Zurich Plays... 1916. World War I. Millions die. But in Zurich, Switzerland, an art movement is born. Join the Dadaists for a Dada history of Dada. This West Coast Premiere promises an hour and a half of baffling behavior, surrealist spectacle, and men in diapers.

The cast includes:
Jessie Wayburn as Voice Over Loudspeaker
Steven Westdahl as Tristan Tzara
Nathan Tucker as Richard Huelsenbeck
Ryan Hayes as Marcel Duchamp
Megan Cohen as Man Ray
Scott Baker as Kurt Schwitters
Ignacio Zulueta as Andre Breton

Michael Hussey as Hugo Ball & The French Tart Who Is Obviously A Man
Now in its 24th year, the San Francisco Fringe Festival brings fresh, daring, exciting theatre of all varieties to open-minded audiences of all persuasions. Often over-the-top and under-the-radar of traditional theatre, "The Fringe" has its rabid devotees - and wins more fans every year.
