Set at the dawn of the Great Recession, this vaudevillian romp asks the question, "Does humanity have an expiration date?" While six hungry urbanites scramble for sustenance and cook up schemes for love and success, the beasts of agribusiness close in bringing of corruption and consumption. This provocative play looks at American enterprise and ingenuity at the beginning of the Obama age and wonders if there really is a viable alternative to capitalism. Sarah Marshall stars as the anthropomorphic "Big Hog," the ultimate capitalist underdog, along with Danny Escobar, Naomi Jacobson and an award-winning Washington cast. Learn More

Description
A musical based on a play by French playwright Marivaux, Triumph of Love premiered on Broadway in 1997 starring Betty Buckley, F. Murray Abraham, and Susan Egan. The story has high style, high notes and high comedy combined with a clever adaptation.
Love can make a woman do strange things. Like lie about her past. Or give up her career for the man she loves. Or throw off her princessly raiment and disguise herself as a young man in order to infiltrate the guarded "men only" palace compound of an exiled prince she admired from afar, who is secretly plotting to murder her and usurp her throne. Such is the tale of this tongue-in-cheek musical.
