Fredericksburg Theatre Ensemble presents a night of absurdist theater

Fredericksburg Theatre Ensemble presents a night of absurdist comedy, bringing Edward Albee's "The Zoo Story" and Craig Pospisil's "American Dream Revisited" and "Infant Morality" to  the Central Rappahannock Regional Library Aug. 2 & 3 at 8pm, and again Aug. 4 at 2pm. 
Albee's Zoo Story, directed by Anna Penniman, tells the story of a man sitting quietly on a bench in Central Park, when another man, Jerry happens upon him. Jerry very much wants to interact with Peter and tell his stories of kimono wearing boarding house neighbors; snarling, angry dogs; and visits to the zoo. 
Pospisil's American Dream Revisited, directed by FTE's first Young Director, Rebecca Law, is a heartwarming family comedy that tells the oft repeated tale of a family outing to the middle of the desert to kill grandma. Pospisil's Infant Morality, also directed by Rebecca Law, is a twisted, comedic short that encourages reviewing return policies and enhancing employee background checks.

Tickets are $10. Tickets are available online,www.fredericksburgtheatre.org, and at the door for all performances.
