A co-production with The Play Company in association with John Adrian Selzer
The Ugly One
by Marius von Mayenburg
directed by Daniel Aukin
You are ugly. It’s a fact. I can’t believe you didn’t know. Lette is a talented engineer. But his boss won’t let him go to the conference to present his electrical plug.
This whip smart social satire from one of Germany’s most exciting contemporary playwrights uses daring theatricality to explore a world where nothing can be taken at face value. Former Artistic Director Daniel Aukin (4000 MILES) returns to Soho Rep and The Play Company to direct.
Featuring: Steven Boyer, Andrew Garman, Lisa Joyce & Alfredo Narciso
