About RISING: We Come To Collect: A Flirtation, With Capitalism

Off-Broadway comedy-theatre that drags us into the anus of darkness with a wink and a snarl. Baltimore-born chaos merchant Jenn Kidwell and ASL artist Brandon Kazen-Maddox roll through the pigsty of global capitalism, skewering myths of American economic might, and shimmy-shaking between time, race, desire, shame, and Flava Flav.

Fuck work, chase your dreams, believe you’re a miracle.

"Kidwell, a comic genius...,ping-pongs hilariously among topics (time, America, Flavor Flav)....Her own extraordinary quality as part chaos Muppet, part deep thinker intensifies as you get closer to the stage." - The New Yorker
