    Six actors. Twenty-four performances. No breaks. No kidding. Eugene Ionesco’s one-hour masterpiece of metaphysical nonsense will be performed every hour, on the hour, for 24 hours! Suburban life gets an extreme makeover when the Smiths and Martins find themselves trapped in a world of conformity, social manners and paranoid suspicions. Identities shift, secrets are revealed and all sense of decorum and communication breaks down in a delirious rush of words and gestures. As the clock strikes the hour, The Bald Soprano ends where it began. Without missing a beat the actors pick up the action for yet another performance—carrying Ionesco’s conceit to a whole new level of absurdity!
