"At the Red Room Theatre, just a few blocks away, is a new play from the excellent Stolen Chair Theater Company. It's the second in their series of theatre pieces inspired by classic film genres; this one, called KILL ME LIKE YOU MEAN IT, mixes film noir with the absurdist comedy of Eugene Ionesco. We got a preview of it when we recorded an nytheatrecast episode about the show: on this program, you'll hear a scene from the play, performed by actors Cameron J. Oro and Alexia Vernon. (It's fantastic!)"
-Martin Denton, NYtheatre.com

If you love the 40's film noirs like THE BIG SLEEP, THE MALTESE FALCON, LAURA, and GILDA, you must see this show.  If you love the early plays of French absurdist Eugene Ionesco like THE BALD SOPRANO and THE LESSON, you must see this show.  If you love LIFE, LIBERTY, and the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS, you must see this show.  If you love AMERICA, you must see this show.  If you hate ANY or ALL of these, you must see this show.

From Isaac Rathbone's
Breakfast for Dinner

"Add one cup of German Expressionism, two cups of American Gangster films of the 1930’s, a tablespoon of whiskey, and a pack of Lucky Strikes. Mix all ingredients and have it cook and settle during the horrors and persecutions of Nazi Germany. Serve in low light."

Stolen Chair's interview series continues with Isaac Rathbone
