Obie Award-winning director and founder of the New York Fringe Festival John Clancy brings the show that started it all, Americana Absurdum, to P.S. 122 starting Tuesday June 6th, running in rep with The Complete Lost Works of Samuel Beckett…

Americana Absurdum is a two-part riotous fun-house mirror reflection on life in the United States. In Vomit & Roses a family-run funeral home resists a hostile corporate take-over as the family children stare down the Senior Prom. Wolverine Dream is a high-stakes courtroom battle in which a poet/airline president faces a lawsuit, after one of his pilots intentionally crashes an airplane. Written by Brian Parks; directed by John Clancy.

‘Recently unearthed’ by Greg Allen, Benjamin Schneider and Danny Thompson, The Complete Lost Works… is comprised of seven scripts supposedly penned by Samuel Beckett. What the creators insist is his first ever dramatic piece, written at age seven, Happy Happy Bunny Visits Sad Sad Owl, is presented in its original puppet staging, as well as Foot Falls Flatly, apparently written posthumously.
