Too Strange to Live, Too Weird to Die is back!This reading series, curated by Literary Manager Todd Brian Backus, features beautiful and bizarre plays that stretch the limits of the theatrical imagination.They want me to put word scrambles in the Auschwitz Unit Things are starting to unravel for Rebecca and her chronically unemployed butch girlfriend, O. Rebeccas work starts bleeding into her personal life as she starts meeting World War II Nazis on the 7 train, passing as hipsters. While O is also sparring with visions of her long estrangedand recently dead?mother to argue with her about her choices. This almost-love story explores the relationship between honesty and cruelty: How do you tell the truth about yourself when that truth might devastate the people you love? A tour-de-force for two actors playing eight different roles.This reading is funded in part by the Maine Arts Commission.
