From Shakespearean tragedy to experimental performance art to an old-fashioned, jaw-dropping musical, DealChicken is a fan, supporter and student of live theater. And when he’s in need of a fix, he knows he can count on the thrilling thespians of Bootless Stageworks to step up. Renowned playwright Christopher Durang's 'Why Torture and the People Who Love Them' tells the story of a young woman suddenly in crisis: Is her new husband, whom she married when drunk, a terrorist? Or just crazy? Or both? Is her father’s hobby of butterfly collecting really a cover for his involvement in a shadow government? Honing in on our private terrors both at home and abroad, Durang oddly relieves our fears in this black comedy for an era of yellow, orange and red alerts. Right now, you can get two tickets for the price of one, or one ticket at half off for shows 3/14 at 7 p.m., 3/15 at 8 p.m., 3/16 at 8 p.m. or 3/17 at 3 p.m. All shows take place at 405 E. Marsh Lane Newport, DE 19804 located inside the Newport Industrial Park with free parking
