Trainwreck Productions presents The Totalitarians by Peter Sinn Nachtrieb on Friday & Saturday, September 25 & 26.
Nebraska might be on the brink of revolution. Penny, a compulsive and compulsively watchable candidate for state office enlists the help of Francine, a silver-tongued operative. Francine’s husband Jeffrey, a doctor, is lying to his dying patients, one of whom opens his eyes to Penny’s nefarious plans for the Cornhusker State. The Totalitarians is a raucous dark comedy about the state of modern political discourse, modern relationships, and how easy it is to believe truths without facts.
Trainwreck Productions returns with a script that is both as hilarious and tragic as it is timely. Nachtrieb’s snappy dialogue is brought to life by a small ensemble cast that features Lindsay Quam as Francine, Gwen Merfeld as Penny, Nicholas Johnson as Jeffrey, and Addison Aronson as Ben. The production is directed by founding artistic director Ryan Decker.
The Totalitarians contains adult language and content and is intended for mature audiences.
The Totalitarians performs Friday & Saturday, September 25 & 26 at 7:30 PM at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Dubuque, 1699 Iowa St. Admission is a suggested donation of $10 cash at the door. Doors open at 7:00 PM.
