Description
In the not to distant future, under yet another Bush Presidency, it has been determined that the best way to prevent another terrorist attack is to quarantine all cows to prevent sabotage of the meat supply and to assign an armed soldier in every home. George and Sylla Shrub are supporters of the president and welcome Sgt. Jenkins, a crackerjack marine, with open arms. Their lives not only become disrupted, but it strains the relationship due to all the security precautions their new houseguest imposes on them. Sylla, the more liberal of the two, since she religiously watches Oprah daily, begins to question the need for such protection. The war that ensues in their home is no match for the war on terror. This outrageous comedy by Bretton B. Holmes is a patriotic, politically incorrect, and guaranteed to offend someone somewhere out there.
In the Stone Cottage Theatre. Purchase tickets online or by calling 214-477-4942.
