Penguin Sex With Mr. Morgan: A Cabaret For An Apocalypse

(“Solo” Piece) A burlesque apocalypse in three parts. As the ice melts melts melts, Baby, a punk rock penguin, leads a revolt. And the clothes can’t help but fall off. But wait, Morgan Freeman’s voice looms, telling us what to do, what not to do, what we must do, what do we want him to do, this Body-Named-Black. Ice melts melts melts. Another layer peels to the ground. It’s so cold that it’s fiery hot. Twenty minutes left: and wait, there’s more… but I thought you said this was a burlesque? Ice melt melt melt. A striptease down to our raw parts.
