One of Poland’s most celebrated playwrights, Sławomir Mrożek wrote this absurdist piece as a subtle critique of the political system of the time. In The Martyrdom of Peter Ohey, a family’s home life turns upside down when a tiger suddenly appears in their bathroom. As more and more absurd characters invade their home (a Scientist, a Government Official, a Circus Manager, and more), the family must decide whether or not to give in and join the circus.
8 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Admission: $25 on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, with two for one admission on Thursdays.
