The Chairs

Presented by NY Goofs - 2009 Out of the Loop Festival

Description

The New York Goofs take on theatre of the absurd using clown logic and physical comedy. Join them as an old couple sharing stories of the “almost" in their lives prepare for a multitude of guests invisible, but nevertheless requiring seats resulting in a crowded empty stage where a mute Orator will deliver a message to save humanity. This face of the tragic persuasion has combined the madcap and maddening since it was first performed in 1952. In Ionesco’s poignant and playful The Chairs, enlightenment hides behind entertainment as the geriatric Punch and Judy couple anticipate this great culmination of their lives.
