THE ELABORATE ENTRANCE OF CHAD DEITYA Boston Premiere by Kristoffer Diaz Directed by Shawn LaCountJuly 28-August 25Calderwood Pavilion at the Boston Center for the Arts
Having just won the Obie for Best New American Play, this Pulitzer finalist is as hilarious as it is relevant. Mace is a professional wrestler. He’s a really good professional wrestler. He’s not the champion though — that’s the impossibly charismatic Chad Deity. When Mace discovers a young Indian-American Brooklyn kid whose charisma rivals that of the champ, Mace decides to get him a job in the company. Only problem is, the boss has a very specific plan for the duo! A serious minded comedy about wrestling, geopolitics, and raisin bread.
“This dynamite show is like Tarantino tackling the WWF.” – New York Post “A smack-down of a play.” – Broadway.com LA “…punch drunk on adrenaline…” – The New York Times "Has the delicious crackle and pop of a galloping, honest-to-God, all-American satire" – New York Times"Flashy, fleshy and ridiculously entertaining" – New York Daily News
Enter to win a pair of tickets to see The Elaborate Entrance of Chad Deity at the Roberts Theatre at the Calderwood Pavilion at the Boston Center for the Arts, located at 527 Tremont Street, South End, Boston, MA.
