Ubu the King
1543 W. Division Chicago
In a new adaptation by artistic director Mike Oleon, Rough House'sUbu the King brings Jarry's seminalsatire to life in all its absurd, grotesque glory. In the hands of five power hungry puppeteerperformers, PaUbu murders, lies, and farts his way up to the Polish throne - and back down again. Beautifully designedand meticulously realized by designer Grace Needlman, Rough House'sUbu is ridiculous,heartbreaking, and spectacular.
