Who said a recession couldn’t be funny?
Teatro Vivo’s bilingual comedy offers a farcical look at a community facing a food shortage during a difficult economic time. Dario Fo’s ¡No Se Paga! We Won’t Pay! takes a look into the lives of two couples struggling between good and starvation. When prices become too high for life’s necessities, whom is to blame? Who is to suffer? And who are to take matters into their own hands
Teatro Vivo brings a unique style of bilingual Spanish/English production that couples comedy with social commentary in Fo’s ¡No Se Paga! We Won’t Pay! . The audience is challenged to think, how far would I go to continue to put food on my table? Can our economy become bad enough to ensue mayhem in supermarkets? Who said a recession couldn’t be funny?

laughed with Teatro Vivo's ¡No Se Paga! We Won’t Pay! but likes Rupert Reyes' work better than this of Dario Fo. http://tinyurl.com/m5o92l
