Native Speech by Eric Overmyer, directed by Christopher Thomasson

In a futuristic city, one man tells it like he sees it-The Hungry Mother! He's the DJ with a strong pulse but a weak signal. He riffs on the truth with verbal virtuosity, with primal passion, with ambidextrous dexterity, with a sexy scream...but when his visions begin to manifest themselves in sinister ways, is he being played by darker forces? Or are his words creating a dangerous truth? (Thursday, November 20 – Sunday, December 21).
