    Ultra Popcorn Presents

    WASP and The Zig Zag Woman by Steve Martin

    October 11th – 13th at 7pm and 9pm

    October 18th – 19th at 8pm

    Tickets available through ultrapopcorn.com

     

    Ultra Popcorn Theatre Company presents two one act plays by Steve Martin: WASP and The Zig Zag Woman.  Directed by Gayle Rej and Barb Hays and performed at 7 Stages Black Box Theatre in Little Five Points, these plays present a hilariously dark look at American familial and romantic relationships.

    Pushed to amazing lengths to relive profound loneliness, the waitress in The Zig Zag Woman magically separates herself into three parts to facilitate her quest for a man. In the fractured landscape of 50s suburbia, WASP’s prototypical, but perverse nuclear family exists in a dark limbo of expectation and routine. The play vibrates with satire and dark lyrical irony as the family meanders blindly toward catastrophe.

     

    Steve Martin has been renowned for 50 years as a comedian, actor, musician, writer, and playwright.  Martin began publishing plays in the late 1990s and seen within the context of his standing in the arts community and box office bankability at the time, the plays are an interesting examination of the identity politics of the 90s and the author’s own contribution to the cultural landscape. The two one act plays feature Christina Leidel (2017 Suzi Bass Award winner), Michael A. Cook, Jared Nipper, Elizabeth Hammontree, Melanie Parker, and Michael Malone.
