The Greenhouse Theater Center
2257 N Lincoln Avenue Chicago

In The Water Engine: An American Fable, an inventor named Charles Lang searches for a patent for his revolutionary engine, which runs exclusively on water and would eliminate the industrial stronghold on the American economy. Ultimately, Lang’s quest for scientific progress, told by Mamet through the device of a live radio play, reveals an ugly side of Chicago not advertised at the Century of Progress Exposition.
