A Play on Words

'Who's On First meets Waiting for Godot' (New York Times) in this ferociously witty play on, about and spilling over with language. Rusty and Max have been friends for most of their lives and they've been arguing almost the entire time. Today, they're scheming up something big. Fringe First winner Brian Dykstra's signature style crackles in this uproarious backyard comedy where two not-so-average average Americans spar in a relentlessly fanatical pursuit of what is said, what is intended, and what is. 'It goes great places!' (Variety). Directed by Fringe First winner Margarett Perry.
