"...takes on modern American culture and those attitudes that promote
mediocrity in our politics. Libertarian Rage pokes at our extremism and
the results are intelligent, often hysterical...spares no one...unlike
political theater that takes easy swipes at easy targets, [it] ultimately
asks us to look at ourselves to determine if we have, indeed, created
the government we deserve." "Angry common sense was never dripping with such tasty snake oil.
This guy's got his tricorne hat on sideways, and he's menacingly
waving his fife at you!" About the Show
Welcome to the real fringe of American politics! The original masters of doublespeak and weasel-words take on the myriad ways language is used to retort, contort, and distort in this irreverent collection of songs, sketches and stories. In past years, we've brought you the struggles of gods and kings. But sometimes, good and evil is about more than angels and demons -- and people sell their souls every day. Now, the troupe brings their unique storytelling to American soil, to take on one of the greatest myths of all -- the myth of American democracy. WARNING: This show contains profanity, gunshots, and other reckless exploitation of the First and Second Amendments. Performance Dates
