DAISEY DOES IT

Look what I just got in my in-box! Oh man, I gotta make sure I can see this. Intense!

I looked up the festival - details here.

HOW THEATER FAILED AMERICA
(a new monologue)
The Public Theater's
Under The Radar Festival
One Performance Only!
Sunday, January 13th at 2pm

Master storyteller Mike Daisey returns to the Under The Radar Festival sinking his razor-sharp wit into a subject he knows well: the American theater, from the sublimely crass to the genuinely ugly. From gorgeous new theaters standing empty as cathedrals, to "successful" working actors traveling like migrant farmhands, to an arts culture unwilling to speak or listen to its own nation, Daisey takes stock of the dystopian state of theater in America: a shrinking world with smaller audiences every year. Fearlessly implicating himself and the system he works within, Daisey seeks answers to essential and dangerous questions about the art we're making, the legacy we leave the future, and who it is we believe we're speaking to.
