More If You've Got It

"More If You've Got It" brings together five full-length plays from Chicago's acclaimed Theater Oobleck. This collection features works by five founding members, each currently active with the company: "Ugly's First World" by Jeff Dorchen, in which a singing zombie, seeking revenge against T. S. Eliot, becomes a pawn in a battle to overthrow God; "Innocence and Other Vices" by Dave Buchen, a half-true, half-blasphemous screwball comedy about the mildly unhealthy relationship between charity and capitalism; "Letter Purloined" by David Isaacson, a whodunit comedy about war atrocities and a handkerchief; "There Is a Happiness That Morning Is" by Mickle Maher, a play in rhymed verse, about the poetry of William Blake and having sex in public; and "Necessity" by Danny Thompson, a bloody and historically inaccurate bio-drama of Thomas Alva Edison. See what audiences around the world have come to know as uniquely Oobleckian: irreverent, vexed, impossibly funny, and unexpectedly transcendent.
