[Greg Wise speaking] Accidental Death of an Anarchist is a political farce written in 1970 by Dario Fo
who is taking a really biting look at political government corruption, all encased in a real slapstick, whacky comedy.
We've had a lot of fun. We say try it this way. Try it that way. Try this. What if you did this? What if we did that?
For me as a director, I'm always in a comedy trying to see where can I put someone on top of a piece of furniture where it wouldn't normally seem they should go
and using the stage in a way that's fun and creative.
This one just really makes me laugh.
[Jackson Ward speaking] The driving force behind a comedy like this is the action
and once we got into getting on the desk and barking like a dog, for instance, that's when it got really, really fun.
[Phil Olvera speaking] I think the best part is the cast - the chemistry we seem to have.
In a farce, you kind of need to rely on your other cast mates to bring it.
The chemistry we seem to have is just total fun.
[Jackson Ward speaking] I think this play is hilarious. I think this play is a people-pleaser.
I think that anyone of all ages could really get it.
[Phil Olvera speaking] I think people should come out and see it. We have a great cast and it's going to be really energized and electric.
[Greg Wise speaking] The play will run February 15th through February 17th at 7:30 p.m.
and on Sunday, February 18th at 2 p.m. in the Blinn-Bryan Campus Student Center Theater.
