Description

In Idiot Savant, Marie asks, “But what makes certain words magic?” What follows is a wild theatrical odyssey in the great tradition of Ionesco and Preston Sturges. From precise existential and metaphysical acrobatics, to a ridiculous game of inter-species golf with a Giant Duck, Idiot Savant is a comedic exploration of the boundaries of the legitimate.

Should I see it?

Once the show opens, we will give you the full scoop. Check back soon!
