RAT’s 7th Season
TOIL & TROUBLE
A hilarious riff on Macbeth with three slackers trying to make easy money!
MAY 17th to MAY 27th
Matt, Beth, and Adam, are underemployed, fueled by too much take out food, and too desirous of making a fortune without much more effort than they offer in finding their next meal!
The three come up with a fool proof (but not slacker proof) plan to take over an exotic and lightly inhabited island off south america–somewhere near it at least–they think. What could possibly go wrong?
But then a fortune cookie tells Matt he will rule, and then Beth becomes a bit too good with a dagger, things get a bit out of bloody control–and we do mean bloody. Just like the classic MACBETH soon hilarious chaos unfolds!
“An uproarious modern day comedy”.
“Laugh-out-loud weird fun, but not for the entire family unless they are into bloody fun!”
“Lauren Gunderson makes a good case that greed, hubris, and lust for power, and just plain lust, never go out of style!”
