“A joyously mad evening of comic theater […] The play ends and you ask yourself, ‘Where do we go from here?’ Perhaps that’s just the political question we all need to be asked right now.”
-James Wilkinson, Boston Stage Notes

Intramural Theater's newest production offers a refreshingly absurd portrait of American systems of power. Inspired by the works of Sylvia Plath and Samuel Beckett, "Timbuktu, USA" tells the story of Kelly Kilkenny, a decorated career politician who formulates a devious plot to attain the ultimate seat of power – the American presidency. Will Kilkenny manage to claim what’s rightfully hers, or will the men (and the monkey) in her life prevent her from claiming the highest seat in the land?
