Zizzel Barbudo gets a phone call— unbearable human happiness is available NOW for NO CASH DOWN, at a LOW FIXED RATE, with ZERO PAYMENTS until ennui is FINALLY VANQUISHED. All he has to do is come on into the main office and sign the papers. If only he could get out of the house. Instead, Zizzel’s uncontrollable anxiety hauls him by the imagination through a duodenum of terror— and everywhere but to the glistening, candy-studded skyline of human joy. Inspired by the work of Brothers Quay, David Lynch, and Buster Keaton, the tiny O of long is a tragitoon world made of puppets, film, sharp-toothed soundscapes, and live performance.

the tiny of O of long is written and performed by Joe Mazza. Joe Mazza has been working in theatre for 25 years. His latest full length play, Art and Her Ugly Sisters, is a Semi-Finalist in the Eugene O'Neill Theatre Center's 2008 National Playwright's Conference.

the tiny O of long runs Fridays and Saturdays, October 17 - November 8, 2008

Tickets are available at the door for $15 or pay what you can. Reservations can be made by calling 773.244.9720
