SUMMARY:Durst Case Scenario\, a hysterical exploration by Will Durst!
DESCRIPTION:Fresh from the national tour of his award- nominated\, hilarious chronicle of the action packed 2016 election\, “Elect to Laugh\,” comedian\, columnist\, actor\, author\, former oyster shucker\, Will Durst\, presents his new solo outing “Durst Case Scenario\,” a hysterical exploration of the changes in America during the Time of Trump. DCS is a rollicking feast of outrage and outrageousness as up- to- date as the latest 4 am Oval Office tweet. \nIn this lightning- paced\, 85- minute comedic tour- de- force\, Durst\, described by the New York Times as “possibly the best political comic working today\,” analyzes where we are\, how we got here and what possible destinations lie ahead. Along with analyzing the altered political landscape\, he also details the wacky zany antics\, palace intrigues and potholes and pitfalls of polarization that threaten our country\, hemisphere\, planet\, solar system and universe\, in this\, The New Abnormal. \nThe response has been electric. Crowds are streaming to performances searching for a community of like- minded confused souls. Equal parts comedy and therapy\, the intrepid Dr. Durst assists audiences in overcoming their PTSD: President Trump Stress Disorder\, by surgically isolating the farcical and sticking pins into the ludicrous. For sufferers who never thought they’d laugh again\, this show is the perfect prescription. \nDurst describes this strange new world where everyday without a mushroom cloud is a victory. He provides a prescription for the anxiety of never knowing whether the president will strike the flint that shoots a spark to light the fuse to Armageddon. Prepare to meet the funny side of defiance. Because it is laughter that allows hope to creep back on the inhale. \nAbly assisted by his trusty overhead projector and blessed with an extraordinary talent to engage his audiences with hysterical observations and righteous exasperation\, Durst mocks & scoffs & taunts in segments such as Trumpapalooza\, the Bright Sides of Donald J. Trump’s Presidency\, the Symptoms of PTSD & Mike Pence is the Product of Reverse Taxidermy. \n \nThe Durst Case Scenario is playful and ludicrous and whimsical and droll and silly and serious and sarcastic\, mischievous\, incisive\, trenchant\, profound\, and chock full of jokes. Many funny ones. A unique theatrical event delivered with stand- up timing and not less than a modicum of poetry. \nDue to the subversive nature of this show\, a portion of each night’s proceeds will be donated to fund a non- profit whose mission will be to bury wire cutters along the Canadian border. Will Durst’s performances are brought to you by the 1st Amendment to the US Constitution. At least\, right now. See this show before this sort of thing becomes illegal. \nAcknowledged by peers and press alike as one of the premier political satirists in the country\, Will Durst has patched together a quilt of a career\, weaving together columns\, books\, radio and television commentaries\, acting\, voice- overs and stand- up into a riotous patchwork of funny comedy humor. The Oregonian called him\, “The thinking man’s comedian.” Author of 4 books\, Durst has told jokes in 16 countries\, racked up 800+ television appearances\, released 5 CDs and despite blistering reproach\, continues to squeeze ketchup on his bratwurst. \n\n“Outrageously funny! Will Durst is a master comic and highly enjoyable.”– Eddie Reynolds\, Theatreblogspot \n“My face ached from chuckling” “The crowd’s laughter began with Durst’s first gag and ended with his last” “When it comes to political satire\, I think I’ll cast my vote for Durst.” – Woody Weingarten\, Marinscope \n“He’s so good that even if you’re suffering from the queasy nausea that goes with too much election year BS\, you’ll still make room for him. The other joy of watching Durst lies in watching a master at work who fits into the rare genre of intelligent comedy\, equal parts professor and clown.”– Cy Ashley Webb\, Stark Insider \n“Just when you think the 2016 election cycle can’t get any more over-the-top\, along comes Will Durst to find fresh and even more outrageous material to satire.”– Evan Almdale\, Joint Forces Journal \n“My stomach ached from laughing.” – Doug Konecky\, SF Theatre Blog \n\n
