Inhaltsangabe

"In the tradition of the Theater of the Absurd, We, The Monstrous is a brilliant work of resistance that maps the paths that have brought us to the edge of the abyss. Mark DuCharme’s script for an 'unrealizable film' examines our fractured humanity, and offers us several possible futures. May we heed the oracle of art and choose wisely, for as this poem proves, everything matters." —Brenda Coultas

What would happen if you woke to find the nightmare you’d been having was all too real? We, the Monstrous: Script for an Unrealizable Film explores the effects and consequences individual actions can have in a world gone wrong— a world very much resembling our own. The rise to power of a megalomaniac leader sparks hate and violence, threatening the common good— but what can our heroine do about it? Part absurdist theater, part classical tragedy, part satiric farce, part call to resistance, all poem, Mark DuCharme’s text complicates genre and formal distinctions even as it resists easy answers to modern problems with deep historical roots.This is poet’s theater for the age of discord.
