IN THE NEXT ROOM, OEDIPUS EL REY & More Set for Woolly Mammoth's '10-'11 Season
The Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company in Washington, DC., has announced their upcoming works for its 2010-2011 season. Below is the full lineup.
OEDIPUS EL REY
By Luis Alfaro, Directed by Michael John Garcés
February 7 - March 6, 2011
An Oedipus rewired for today, but which still explores the complex rhythms between maternal and sexual love. Set in the present day between the L.A. barrio and California prison system, this transformed classic explores love and self-fulfilling prophecy in a world of crime and fate.
A NEW MONOLOGUE* BY Mike Daisey
Created by Mike Daisey, Directed by Jean-Michele Gregory
March 21 - April 10, 2011
Mike Daisey brings great intensity and passion to every topic he tackles. This time around, Mike applies his maniacal musings and hysterical wit in a new monologue that deconstructs a certain technology icon*.
*Note: The subject of this play and title will be revealed as soon as Mike concludes his stealthy research.
BOOTYCANDY
Written and Directed by Robert O'Hara
June 6 - July 10, 2011
Robert O'Hara, the Helen Hayes-nominated writer of Antebellum, presents a scandalous and wickedly funny lesson in sex education. This high-energy contemporary comedy explores how we talk about our bodies at home, in church, and on the corner.
