Will Durst's BOOMERAGING: From LSD to OMG
2014-02-09
Written and Performed by Will Durst, with KPOV’s Celeste Franklin opening.
BoomerAging is a tribute to the joys, achievements and looming terrors that accompany being a member of the Baby Boom Generation.
It assesses their still vibrant role in today’s youth – obsessed society and celebrates them for refusing to grow old in the face of changing times, gravity and the reflection that greets them daily in the mirror. Utilizing technology specifically designed not to spook the target audience (overhead projector) Durst will explore the Boomers’ revolutions, evolutions and explain how best to embrace the encroaching wrinkles. He also promises to shamelessly stroke the egos and pat the hands of the self- described Most Important Generation of All Time through show segments entitled Racing From The Shadow Of A Mushroom Cloud. The Blinking VCR. Hey You Punks, Get Off My Wireless Router. The Brightside of Extreme Maturation. From Summer Of Love To Winter Of Our Disbelief. Everything You Wanted To Know About Decrepitude But Were Afraid To Ask & Hope I Die Before I… Oh, Too Late.
A Benefit for KPOV, 88.9 FM.
Tickets on sale in mid-January.
