The Civilians: An Anthology of Six Plays
Neal Bell
(I Am) Nobody's Lunch
by Michael Friedman, Steven Cosson, The Civilians
Synopsis
Delving into the politics of information, The Civilians – in its singular signature style – conducted extensive interviews with subjects ranging from a policymaker at Homeland Security on the verge of a nervous breakdown to a plucky extraterrestrial (channeled by an equally funny human); from every Jessica Lynch in the phone book (who was willing to talk) to soldiers guarding the New York subway with unloaded weapons.
Turning these interviews into a mercurial cabaret-play, The Civilians explore how we know what we know when those in power seem to be constantly lying.
Nobody’s Lunch is a dark ride through American culture.
