Theatre ‘d Art

Young Patsy Newquist brings her new boyfriend home to meet her parents. Her parents are at first pleased, until they find out that the new boyfriend is something of a nihilist and is a photographer who specializes in taking pictures of… shit. And of course all of this happens while the city is in the midst of a growing crime wave, ever present power outages, and a myriad of other problems…

Welcome to the world of “Little Murders,” Theatre ‘d Art’s latest production and the third in its Season of Illusions. Originally written in 1967 by Jules Feiffer partially in response to the Kennedy assassination and the crime wave that gripped New York City, this play is no less relevant, or hilarious, today. As we modern Americans continue come to grips (or not) with the aftermath of September 11th,the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, not to mention the growing crime and supposed deterioration of our own little city, the themes of “Little Murder” resonate greatly today. Explore the self induced illusions of the not so bizarre characters as they try to survive the 60’s and see if you can spot a few little murders of your own in our modern world…
