Performance Length
70 minutes, no intermission

An American reckoning 250 years in the making. 

The play begins, but nothing happens - technical difficulties. The play restarts, but again, nothing happens. The box officer comes out and explains that there's been a mistake: The cast didn't show up. There are no refunds, the show must go on, and the box officer himself must take to the stage and embody one of the most controversial 21st century American figures. 

Created and Performed by Michael Torsch
