With a mature and sensitive
eye, Hot Tubbin I explores what happens when principles
conflict with the cruelties of political life and refreshingly it
does so without turning its back on the redemptive powers of kung fu, the inspiring
words of President Nixon, or the insidious allure of Camus and the Insane Clown
Posse. Understand that we are well-qualified in addressing the matters
which bedevil the soul of the modern political being, as we have toiled in the
political arena for nearly a decade. Our expertise is such that only one of the
nations most cunning political minds (including the guy who wrote the
1970s crap-rock super-hit Still the One) could dislodge us from
our posts on Capitol Hill. Hot Tubbin I = Crowd-Pleasin
Fun. The audience will closely identify with a muscle-bound kung-fu expert/cowboy/hot
tub engineer who looks like Lou Diamond Phillips (or, cross fingers, Kevin
Spacey) as he tangles with Washingtons blowhards and bitter realities.
They will find their spirit renewed when he is repeatedly and appropriately likened
to Christ for his efforts to slightly modify wastewater infrastructure legislation.
The audience will nod in sad familiarity at the sight of a sanctimonious congressman
blowing lines of coke off a Bible held by his cross-dressing Mexican drug mule,
and they will rejoice when a brutal comeuppance is delivered to that same congressman
by the fists of C-SPANs Brian Lamb. The audience, Mr. Schwarzman, will charge
from the theater buoyed by a renewed hope in our democracy thanks to a finale
which shows how one person can still make a difference if they just obtain
billions and billions of dollars and use their fortune to control a massive media
conglomeration and an unregulated 527 political advocacy organization.
Hot Tubbin I is firmly rooted in the cherished traditions
of American Theater. In addition to paying considerable tribute to Eugene
ONeill, Hot Tubbin I has several characters who are gays.
