Wordplay

Wordplay presents an offbeat mix of poetry, comedy, and an ongoing exploration of the possibilities of the spoken word. Wordplay’s opening monologue blends music and language (and sometimes sound effects) into a surreal, funny, often darkly serious meditation on the state of one man’s struggles to live in the bewildering world of contemporary America.
