THE UNDERPANTS GODOT - The winner from last year's Unfringed Festival is about a director named Doug who is surreptitiously rehearsing for an avant-garde production of Waiting for Godot, with the main characters played by hot dudes in their underpants instead of old men. A representative from the notoriously litigious Samuel Beckett estate crashes a rehearsal to investigate and decide whether the performance should be allowed. The play is a hilarious meta-theatrical piece about the limits of adaptation and interpretation.
The production stars Mark Eugene-Garcia, Roberto Alexander Pineda (PCTF Award 2012, Best Supporting Actor, Pflaster's The Taint of Equality), Jason Pintar* (Merrily We Roll Along, APAC), Alyssa Simon* (Obie-winning Metropolitan Playhouse, Icebound, NYIT Nomination 2014, Within Arm's Reach),Patrick Walsh* (Live In Theater's The Ryan Case 1873, Drama Desk Nomination for Unique Theatrical Experience; Host of ScreamQueenz: The Podcast Where Horror Gets Bent, Five-time nominee for the New Media Expo People's Choice Award for Best GLBT Podcast; HBO's The Normal Heart), andMichael Andrew Daly*.
