Drunk Enough to Say I Love You?
by Caryl Churchill
Guy and Sam walk into a bar, have an affair and live happily ever after, until one of them starts to question if they're prepared to do anything for love. Caryl Churchill’s elliptical one act — part political cartoon, part absurdist epic — puts a literal spin on the patriot's relationship with the nation state.
Protest
by Václav Havel
Translated by Vera Blackwell
A couple of drinks, a bowl of peanuts* and a sheet of paper in need of a signature. Small things come with big consequences in Václav Havel’s autobiographical satire of revolutionary activism vs liberal collaboration in which two old friends reunite under the shadow of an authoritarian regime.
*Please note: This is a peanut-free production! We’ll be using an alternative for our props to keep the intimate space of Jarvis Square Theatre safe for people with peanut allergies.
The run time of this production is approximately 90 minutes, including a 10-minute intermission.
