What if a collage artist had decided to be a playwright instead? The result is a strange neighborhood where all of America lives. A woman receives a letter that brings her out of four years of mourning; a trucker passes through town and picks up a local girl; a homeless derelict directs an offensive action movie; a couple tries to start a chicken farm; someone is released from a mental hospital. They all have a party and share one front yard.
This piece is an adaptation of Charles Mee's Bobrauschenbergamerica-- a new twist for here and now, inspired by the work of local collage artist, the late Jeffrey Cook.
