A curmudgeonly Soviet scientist discovers the hope for humanity: the ray of life! But when the government steals his invention, untold horrors are unleashed. Equal parts provocative satire and madcap science fiction, The Fatal Eggs skewers political incompetence and corruption, misguided faith in technology, a gullible and complacent populace, and a fear-mongering media. It's the apocalyptic story of a decaying civilization. It’s a monster tale of utopian intentions gone awry, and a beautiful rumination on what is lost in a culture fueled by exploitation and desire. Seven actors perform 56 different roles in this dizzying seventy-five minute race toward apocalypse.

Preview from the Connecticut Courant
New Haven Theatre Jerk: "The whole show seems exhilaratingly on the edge of collapse for the entire time it’s happening. The chaos perfectly conveys the story Bulgakov is telling.
New Haven Review: "A laughable version of ‘20s Sci-Fi that Orson Welles and his Mercury Players might appreciate."
