Out of the Loop Fringe Festival: The Ugly One
March 7
WaterTower Theatre presents The Ugly One
The Ugly One, by Marius von Mayenburg, is an absurd farce about identity and human beauty. Lette discovers one day what no one has been willing to tell him: he is ugly. His face is simply not acceptable and for such a man, life is not kind. His job, his marriage, and his self-esteem are all compromised by this shortcoming. But what nature denies him, medical science provides. Attractiveness, he finds, can be bought. But what happens when his looks are a commodity? And what are the consequences of giving up his face?
