Synopsis

This collection of three short plays walks the line between political farce and childish buffoonery.

Contains: Ubu, Ubu in Chains , and Ubu Three Adults in your audience will enjoy seeing their kids on stage, but will also be treated to a rousing production of youth's theatre unlike any other.

Ubu uses children's joyful energy to create a world of excitable sycophants and impishly sadistic rulers which comically mirror our own.

A wild and witty bit of entertainment.
