A hilarious satirical piece which turns its eye on office politics, sexual harassment, religious persuasions, political correctness, and societal and cultural norms.
The production throws eight actors into the role of their lives.
(They just don’t know which role till the audience decides for them at each performance!)
The actors will forge their own unique interpretations in any one of the 40,320
possible casting combinations that could confront them.
Different show every night!
"If 'Saturday Night Live' made an industrial video on hiring practices, it might look a lot like “Eat the Runt,” Avery Crozier’s breezy satire on how to land a job and a joke . . ."
-- Charlotte Stoudt, Los Angeles Times
". . .the laugh-out-loud comedy that Eat the Runt is . . .a truly unparalleled theatrical experience . . . Word-of-mouth is going to make Eat the runt a sell-out hit."
--Steven Stanley, StageSceneLA.com
One of the most innovative, funny, wildly creative, ingenious, and theatrically challenging staged concepts I’ve ever seen!
--Pat Taylor, The Tolucan Times"
…it’s smart, sassy, funny, and devastatingly original.”
Martin Denton, nytheatre.com
