LowDown Theatre Co Announces WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE
18 distinct characters; voices reflecting, ranting and pondering on the state of our world and how they fit into it. These men touch upon spirituality (or lack there of), terrorism, money, fame, social status and redemption (or lack there of). They are at times: touching and sarcastic, intriguing and off-putting, hilarious and heartbreaking.
"A meditation on making it to the top of the ladder, on falling off the ladder and on the exhilarating thrill of the ultimate crash and burn. Bogosian takes us for a ferocious ride through a cavalcade of colorful characters as he skewers pop culture, conformity, religious hypocrisy and human nature itself with razor-sharp wit."-dramatists.com
16 of Toronto's best male actors, directed by 13 of Toronto's top female directors.
For their inaugural production, LowDown Theatre Company has reached out to Toronto's independent theatre community, to bring together a talented cast of some of the city's best actors and directors to bring this piece to life.
LowDown: 'The real and unadorned facts; the true, secret, or inside information.' From classical, to contemporary, to new works, LowDown Theatre Co. strives to produce stimulating and engaging stories for today's audience.
