"Oh, yeah! Operation: Enduring Freedom is IN THE HOUSE!"

Rude Mechanicals (a.k.a. Rude Mechs) of Austin, TX barrel into DC with their down and dirty theatrical adaptation of the savage internet comic strip by David Rees (called "sardonic, hilarious, and impossible to pigeonhole" by Rolling Stone). Rude Mechs’ GET YOUR WAR ON breathes life into Rees’ ranting clip-art office workers but retains the DIY aesthetic of this certifiable internet phenomenon. With five actors, some mics and an overhead projector, GET YOUR WAR ON represents pissed-off, stunned and outraged Americans as they react to 9/11, the Bush administration and this totally awesome War on Terror. "A BRILLIANT AND SARDONIC BLITZ" (The Austin American-Statesman). “TIGHTLY-WOUND, HIGH-PRECISION…POLITICAL-COMIC-STRIP HILARITY!" (Austinist.com).

Performances: Wed/Thur/Fri (8pm), Sat (8pm & 10pm), Sun (7pm).

Meet David Rees, Fri, Oct 6 & Sat Oct 7: book-signings (7:15-8pm), plus free post-show discussions with David and the Rude Mechs cast (approx. 9:15pm)
