Prosperous Fools Tickets

Power, pretense, and plenty of spilled champagne.
Five performers pose on stage under dramatic lighting; one person in a long coat stands center, while the others strike expressive dance poses around him.
Two performers on stage: an adult in a shiny gold gown holding hands with a child dressed in tattered earth-toned clothes and holding a large, woven horn.

Three actors perform on stage; one stands in front gesturing, while another stands to the side, and a third rides a large, painted eagle with flaming breath amid theatrical smoke.

About Prosperous Fools

Written by and starring Taylor Mac, Prosperous Fools, loosely inspired by Moliere’s Le Bourgeois gentilhomme, is a brilliant and courageous exploration of philanthropy and its hypocrisies, a retooled comedy of manners for an age with no manners. The setting is a Gala for a not-for-profit dance company. The time is the present. This production contains some adult language and sexually explicit action.
