City Garage at Bergamot Station, Building T1 (Santa Monica, CA)
City Garage’s acclaimed 2007 production of Eugene Ionesco’s The Bald Soprano: A Christmas Anti-Play returns with a new translation/adaptation by Artistic Director Frédérique Michel and Producing Director Charles Duncombe. This mad, absurdist comedy is the perfect escape from the banalities of ordinary holiday fare. Dazzling in its linguistic acrobatics, the play is a comic masterpiece of joyful, irrational anti-logic and a looney parody of the stolid, thick-witted world of middle class propriety. In an escalating battle of banalities, polite conversation turns to confusion, then mayhem, and finally explodes into cheerful, liberating chaos. Simultaneously comic and profound, The Bald Soprano is a short, sharp, ludicrous journey into a funhouse mirror version of the world we think we know — and the truth of what we do not.
