Mixed bag homage to the grand Daddy of Theater of The Absurd, utilizing intriguing Rotunda space for playful and suspenseful twists and turns, with pertinent (& IMP-ertinent?!) gift-bags gaurenteed to all who dare to brave this haunted semi-Gothic icon purchased from the Christian Church of Science for a solid buck by Penn.
With room for improv and audience interaction (not overbearing!), experienced Fringe actors will, via staged readings or off book, will voice short takes on Ionesco classics (and long, later, work so absurd or demanding almost never staged), such as "The Chairs", by Nighthawks artistic director (interpreter of Beckett, Poe, Kafka, Buchner material, past Fringes) William Burrison. Local singer.,performance artist, song writer, poet Kenn Kweder will perform his take on Ionesco's "The Leader" for the show on the 22nd, unfortunately booked for a Bo-Tox Convention in Doylestown the 19th (no, can't make that stuff up!), as well as, hopefully, recreating some of his musical odes to Manic Chaos & Absurdity so often fan requested at his late night Smokey Joe's gigs... or not requested.

Past Fringe shows William Burrison, under "Nighthawks", has produced, and mostly written, in the experimental Environmental Site theater spirit: "Poor Poe," "Estranged Seekers", "4 by Beckett" (audience moving outdoors from Rotunda to Woodlands Cemetery for "Play"), & "The Jesus Portfolio." Also, "Nighthawks" after the painting by Edward Hopper, at Sulimay's Diner, near 1-95. Both shows for this Fringe will feature creative use of the Rotunda space and multi-media.
