    "Equal parts sizzle and savvy, the Naked Angels have a way of getting things done."
    --New York Magazine


    Oh, the Humanity by Will Eno   More Info Add to Cart

    Two people and their two chairs seek to find meaning and direction in life, seek to find just the tiniest shred of certainty, consistency. A stranger arrives -- though he doesn't do what strangers always do, when strangers arrive. If you were ever born, and expect to ever die, this might be a play for you.

    One and Two assemble on stage, ready to deliver a comedy act. But when One announces that she has cancer, laughter and shtick no longer seem like sufficient answers for life's questions. A play that asks what to do when the show must go on.
