Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company - Defy convention

new_season

 

The 2010–2011 season begins with a Vibrator
and ends with Bootycandy — need we say more?

It's a focused and poignant exploration of
our attitudes toward gender, age, race, and sexuality
in a manner that’s uniquely Woolly.

ONE MAN LORD OF THE RINGS
Written & performed by Charles Ross
July 5 – August 1, 2010


The force behind One-Man Star Wars Trilogy returns with his signature brand of camp, irony, and stamina to present another take on good vs. evil.

IN THE NEXT ROOM, OR THE VIBRATOR PLAY
By Sarah Ruhl, Directed by Aaron Posner
August 23 – September 19, 2010


At the dawn of the electrical age, a new medical device is developed to treat and pacify “hysterical” women, but it unknowingly produces a very different result. Pulitzer Prize-nominated playwright Sarah Ruhl, author of The Clean House and Dead Man's Cell Phone, shares this story of repressed sexuality and physical exploration with equal doses of humor and emotion.

HOUSE OF GOLD
By Gregory S. Moss, Directed by Sarah Benson
November 1 – November 28, 2010


Just after Halloween comes a darkly funny inquest on the fate of a certain six-year-old beauty queen. This pitch-black funhouse ride into America's suburban psyche shows how our obsessions with youth, beauty, and race can conjure a bizarre cultural phenomenon like JonBenet Ramsey.

A GIRL'S GUIDE TO WASHINGTON POLITICS
Written and performed by Chicago's Second City
December 8, 2010 – January 9, 2011


Following the success of Barack Stars: The Wrath of Rahm, Second City returns to its D.C. home for a riotous take on the most influential, powerful, and polarizing women in politics. This original and all-new performance is being developed exclusively for Woolly Mammoth and Washington, D.C.!

oedipuselrey

OEDIPUS EL REY
By Luis Alfaro, Directed by Michael John Garcés
February 7 – March 6, 2011


An Oedipus rewired for today, riding the complex rhythms between maternal and sexual love. Set in the present day between the L.A. barrio and a California prison, this explosively transformed classic explores ambition, desire, and self-fulfilling prophecy in a world of crime and cruel fate.

stevejobs

THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY OF STEVE JOBS
Created & Performed by Mike Daisey,
Directed by Jean-Michele Gregory
March 21 – April 10, 2011


Following his smash hit, The Last Cargo Cult, Mike applies his maniacal musings and hysterical wit in a new monologue that deconstructs America's most enigmatic technology icon. A darkly hilarious tale of pride, beauty, lust, and industrial design, Daisey illuminates the war to control how we see our world, and the human price we are willing to pay for our technology.

bootycandy

BOOTYCANDY
Written and Directed by Robert O’Hara
May 30 – June 26, 2011


Robert O’Hara, the recent winner of the Charles MacArthur Award for Outstanding New Play for Antebellum, presents a scandalous and wickedly funny lesson in sex education. This high-energy, off-color comedy explores how we talk about our bodies at home, in church, and on the corner.
