"With a heady mix of the playful, the absurd, and the dramatic manifested in galvanic performances by a fiercely talented cast, Numbness: Chapter 2 delivers the excitement of a genuinely exceptional theatrical experience."
--Thinking Theater NYC

"Daniel Irizarry gives an unforgettable, mighty performance."
--Stage Biz

"Thrillingly kaleidoscopic and boldly physical. An athletic whirl of manic energy."
–The New York Times

Deadpan dada meets Pina Bausch in this physically rigorous, movement-driven, self-imploding melodrama.

After a natural catastrophe blocks out the sun, Fred & Ginger spin, carry, and claw their way through the isolation of a forgotten government lab (or is it a 50's suburban kitchen?), while Yovo catalogs humanity in search of the post-post-post. This is sexy, visceral, bonkers buffoonery reimagined as The New Absurd.
