SUMMARY:The Ultimate Stimulus: Now More Than Ever
DESCRIPTION:The Brick Theater proudly invites you to the streaming premiere of The Ultimate Stimulus: Now More Than Ever\, a digital revival of the original theatrical production\, nominated for two New York Innovative Theater Awards.\n\nMay 17th 8pm ET via The Brick YouTube Channel\n(TAX DAY!)\n\n***\n\n\nWritten by Felipe Ossa\nPerformed by Tanya O’Debra\nDirected by Sara Wolkowitz\nProjection Design by Max Wolkowitz\nPhoto Credit to Gregg Bellón\n\n\n***\n\n\nWe’ve resurrected this show because under COVID the rich have gotten so much richer\, while the number of people barely making ends meet has hit absurd heights. Well\, the tables are about to turn.\n\nRenegade economist Amanda McCloud has been stuck at home\, scheming. Ever since her proposal for solving wealth inequality in America—through modern-day concubinage—was rejected by TED\, she’s been trying to get her message out. Now she’s made a video promoting her radical vision\, rife with awkward sex and some very eligible billionaires.\n\nCould McCloud’s approach to one of our country’s most urgent problems be the answer no one was looking for?\n\n\n***\n\n\nThis streaming event is FREE but donations to The Brick are highly encouraged. Donations can be made via PayPal.me/BrickTheater with the note ‘Ultimate Stimulus’.\n\n\n***\n\nThe Ultimate Stimulus: Now More Than Ever is sponsored\, in part\, by the Greater New York Arts Development Fund of the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs\, administered by Brooklyn Arts Council (BAC). Funding has also been made possible by The Puffin Foundation.\n\n“A seminal work of economic thought.” — Felix Salmon\, Reuters\n\n“Absurd and hilarious\, which\, as good satire does\, serves to illuminate just how difficult our economic problems are.”  — Heidi Moore\, The Guardian\n\n“If the joke’s on us\, at least we leave smiling.” — Ed Cohen\, Cincinnati Citybeat\n\n\n***\n\n\nFor information on the creators of The Ultimate Stimulus\, please visit\nfelipeossa.com / sarawolkowitz.com / tanyaodebra.com
