| The Arsonists |
|
| Woolly Mammoth Theatre |
 |

You probably know the meme of the cartoon dog surrounded by flames and declaring: "This is fine." But you might not know this classic work that may as well have inspired it. Mild-mannered Mr. Biederman tries to live a blameless life, refusing to acknowledge evil of any kind -- even as the world around him burns. The facade comes crashing down when he allows two smooth-talking guests to move in to his home and they start filling his attic with petrol drums. Part moral fable and part black farce, Alistair Beaton's The Arsonists is an elegant, witty translation of Max Frisch's 1958 absurdist comedy The Firebugs, which was inspired by the Communist takeover of Czechoslovakia in 1948 and satirizes the way in which people can be manipulated into accommodating their own destruction.

Narrated by the nameless Stage Manager (played by Angels in America's Jon Hudson Odom), the actors perform this profound drama with Bunraku-style puppets to represent the rest of the townspeople, often breaking the fourth wall to address the audience directly.
