MOON #7: The Naked Emperor Is Still Laughing




The seventh night of Mike Daisey's 29-night live theatrical novel, ALL THE FACES OF THE MOON, recorded September 11th, 2013 at the Public Theater. Tonight: We ask where we were on the day the wine ran sour, when the urn cracked. David Graeber, reading snake entrails for lotto tickets, and Americans as daylight people. The anchor of global security, the brutality of our puppets, and the secret truth that all story is struggle. Magical offerings, the history of playing cards, Sad Carl, and the split wet beavers of northern Maine. Then: a terrifying illumination in Dysart’s Truck Stop.
