The Bald Soprano & The Lesson

BCA Plaza Black Box Theatre, 539 Tremont Street

An absurd play for the absurdist of times! 
Everything is as it should be-or is it? Ridiculous on the surface but razor-sharp underneath, The Bald Soprano & The Lesson is a fast, funny, absurdist double feature. As the laughs pile up in The Bald Soprano, polite dinner party chatter unravels, propriety goes off the rails, and ultimately, conformity spirals into chaos. In The Lesson a hysterical tutoring session explodes into a nonsensical power struggle fueled by misplaced authority. The result is a frenetic theatrical tour-de-force that is simultaneously comedic and profound which asks audiences to laugh loudly but think deeply.
