Mutant Sex Party by Ed Macdonald, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

In Mutant Sex Party & Other Plays, Ed Macdonald eviscerates the high and the mighty, the hypocritical, and those who abuse power in late-Capitalism America. He expertly peels back the tattered facade of corporate respectability and reveals the hypocrisy that is brokered and sold under the guise of "doing business" in America. These plays dig deep at the rot that lies at the base of a free-rein, unregulated, capitalist market system. As well as the title piece, the collection includes The Escape Artist, Erratica, Gemini, Smoke & Blood, Hot Meat and Titus Lucretius Carus. Most of the plays in this collection were first produced by The Drilling Company in New York. Praise for Mutant Sex Party & Other Plays:"Ain't no party like a Mutant Sex Party cause a Mutant Sex Party don't stop! Okay - now that's out of my system. For the characters in these plays, however, nothing ever gets out of their system. They are all stuck, bottled up, locked in constant struggles of domination - legally, politically and sexually. That said, Macdonald is such a good writer that he makes you care about these characters. ... ancient Romans and Hipsters, Crazy Ladies and Cops - everyone's been invited to this Mutant Sex Party, including you. Will you accept Macdonald's invitation?" (A. G. Pasquella, Broken Pencil)On the play Mutant Sex Party:"The audience is constantly on the edge of their seats wondering, 'What's real? What's a fantasy?' ... a complex and challenging play that is very political in nature. Don't let the title fool you; this is about mutant politics as much as sex. We are reminded that while lying and cheating are accepted in politics a blowjob can ruin a career ... a dynamic roller coaster of a theatrical experience." (Karl Wilder, ONOFFOFF)On the play Gemini:"... a crisp and clear loony toon takes over an asylum to carry out his dreams of becoming a 'moderate fascist dictator' ... an enjoyable and illuminating experience" (The Village Voice) | Mutant Sex Party by Ed Macdonald, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
