“The Next Great American Drama,”
Piss.jpg (Working Title) might be described as The Gen Z Waiting for Godot. It might not. There will be no further questions at this time.

OKAY! We have some answers. (No questions). piss.jpg (Working Title) is an absurd, hour-long, 2-handed romp written by and starring Justin Jager and Michael Gardiner set in a kitchen with a sink that would make Arthur Miller climax and Eugene O’Neill smile. The enormity and profundity of what these two men explore and discover (and feel!) on the American Stage is literally impossible to explain and to do so would likely crash the world economy. Let’s not do that.
Instead, here is what you can expect as an audience member:
-
Happiness
-
Sadness
-
Life-Affirmation
-
Laughs
-
GASPS
-
Dancing
-
Noises
-
The Clap
-
FUN! (seriously)
Just wait until you find out what piss.jpg is alllll about.
Hugs and Kisses,
Us.
