Mutt's urinal into a vase of tropical lushness, creating a book that is a swift kick in the hammock, lifting you straight out of your complacency and asking -- no, demanding! - that your eyeballs join the dance of Play, Invention, and especially, the Florreality of life itself." - Bob Holman, March 8, 2022, The Bowery, New York
"Vonnegut is George Orwell, Dr. Caligari and Flash Gordon compounded into one writer . . . a zany but moral mad scientist."-Time Happy Birthday Wanda June was Kurt Vonnegut's first play, which premiered in New York in 1970 and was then adapted into a film in 1971. It is a darkly humorous and searing examination of the excesses of capitalism, patriotism, toxic masculinity, and American culture in the post-Vietnam War era. Featuring behind-the-scenes photographs from the original stage production, this play captures Vonnegut's brilliantly distinct perspective unlike we have ever seen it before.
