They are alone in the Mid-West: where nothing ever happens, and nothing has happened for years… that is, until they agree to put up Frank's old friend Haynes (who is on the lam from a secret government project involving plutonium) and are subsequently visited by Welch, an unctuous government bureaucrat from hell. His aggressive patriotism puts Frank, Emma, and Haynes on the defensive, transforming a peaceful American household into a scene of torture and promoting a radioactive brand of conformity with a dangerously low half-life._ _Described by writer Sam Shepard as 'a take-off on Republican fascism', this uproarious, brilliantly provocative farce was written just before the 2004 US Presidential election, and brings the gifts of a quintessentially American playwright to bear on our current American dilemma. _ PARKING Ample free parking is available within a short walking distance of the theatre. Street parking at meters is free during production hours, as is the surface lot adjacent to Burrito Gallery, one block west of the theatre on Adams Street, between Ocean and Main. A pay lot is located directly adjacent to the theatre on Adams.
