Ubu The King

Ubu The King

Facility Theatre
1138 N California Ave Chicago

Originally penned by Alfred Jarry, a man with a concerning obsession with his physics teacher, Ubu the King is one of the most gleefully anarchic works in theatre history. In this unhinged new translation and adaptation by Denver Hoffman and Ramona Rotten, the play is dragged kicking and screaming into the present louder, grosser, and more gloriously ridiculous than ever before.

Presented by Meat Machine Theatre
