Résumé
&“Richly and often pertinently funny [with] a sure instinct for the carefully considered irrelevance . . . a great deal of incidental hilarity [and] inspired idiocy.&”—The New York Times Happy Birthday Wanda June was Kurt Vonnegut&’s first play, which premiered… in New York in 1970 and was then adapted into a film in 1971. It is a darkly humorous and searing examination of the excesses of capitalism, patriotism, toxic masculinity, and American culture in the post-Vietnam War era. Featuring behind-the-scenes photographs from the original stage production, this play captures Vonnegut&’s brilliantly distinct perspective unlike we have ever seen it before. &“A great artist.&”—The Cincinnati Enquirer
