Theatrikos Presents the Hilarious Farce The Gods of Comedy
The Gods of Comedy runs March 29—April 21, 2024
A hilariously divine farce filled with screwball deities, carnal complexity, conspicuous consumption, madcap mayhem, a touch of romance, and lots of laughs.
Tickets now available
A young woman calls on the gods of Ancient Greece to save her love life—but it’s not the gods of love who show up to help. Theatrikos favorite playwright Ken Ludwig (Lend Me A Tenor) is back with a hilariously divine farce from 2019.
This comedic play features the Greek god Dionysus, the muse Thalia, and a pair of modern-day university professors; one of whom has just discovered the find of the century—a manuscript of the lost tragedy Andromeda by Euripides. But then, of course, they lose the manuscript. The gods appear to help. But they’re confused and irreverent and no help at all. At which point comedic mayhem ensues.
“Audiences will enjoy the wild, over-the-top madcap comedy filled with a little bit of everything. Characters fall in and out of love with each other, characters morph into other characters….the stage is barely able to contain the awesome weight of these comedy gods!,” said director Adam Wintz, who also says he’s enjoying “working with such an incredible cast of talented comedic actors.”
“The Gods of Comedy is a cleverly written, fun loving play,”said actor Aerol Shepard, who plays the university professor. Adds actor Heather Gallegos, who plays the Greek muse Thalia, “the audience will enjoy this play because it is a comedic farce which takes the audience to Greece to meet academics, Gods, and an ambitious janitor. It is fun, fast-paced, and a well-rounded comedic adventure.”
Gods of Comedy runs March 29—April 21.
