Nikolai Gogol’s deeply silly satire of small-town corruption paints a riotous portrait of rampaging self-delusion. When the crooked leadership of a provincial village in Russia discovers that an undercover inspector is coming to root out their commonplace corruption, the town weaves a web of bribery, lies, and utter madness. This wickedly smart adaptation by acclaimed playwright Jeffrey Hatcher is a hilarious reminder of the terrifying timelessness of bureaucracy and buffoonery. Content Advisory: This production contains mature themes, adult language, theatrical haze, and flashing lights. Ages 12 and up.
