Come join Munger in going to Water by the Spoonful play followed by a post-play discussion:

Yazmin Ortiz has been spinning her wheels in academia as an adjunct professor of music when the death of a prominent family member brings her back to the barrio and to her cousin, Elliot Ortiz, a returned Iraq War veteran who struggles to deal with the memories of the war he left behind. Odessa Ortiz, Elliot’s mother and a recovering addict, is the founder and administrator of an online chatroom for other recovering addicts, helping them stay on the straight and narrow. Odessa’s online chatroom brings people together for comfort and support who may have never met otherwise, as her real-life family is splintering at a rapid pace. Inventive and timely, Quiara Alegría Hudes’ Pulitzer Prize-winning Water by the Spoonful is a powerful, compassionate look at the meaning of family, and the burdens we must carry to protect it.

Join Munger in a holiday show like no other!

Mac returns to Ann Arbor with the ultimate holiday survival guide, taking the season head-on and celebrating all of its dysfunction with Holiday Sauce. Joined by longtime collaborators Machine Dazzle and Matt Ray, a spectacular band, and surprise special guests, Mac reframes the songs you love and the holidays you hate, taking aim at Santa’s lap, nativity scenes, consumerism, and more in a dazzling, and at times shocking, take-down of the sentimentality of the Holidays!

Shernel Thomas

Gender and privilege collide in this scathing comedy that will grab you by the pussy hat. As the host of a morning talk show, “Becky’s Time,” Lee Minora skewers and dissects the failings of non-intersectional feminism and the dangers of white women’s tears, putting the #MeToo movement, liberal guilt, and fake celebrity apologies into a blender and creating a concoction that is as absurdly hilarious as it is painfully true. With the cunning of a fool and the charm of a talk-show host, she unearths inadequacy and ineffectiveness in the face of huge social inequality. Teetering between oppressed and oppressor, Minora takes everyone to task, including herself, with a smile on her face and her middle fingers in the air. Meet us in the Munger lobby at 1:15 for transport to Dunderstadt center or meet us there!
