Details:
A group of co-workers from a greeting card company meet for a team building
exercise at their boss's home. The exercise? A game of Tag... with skillets.
It's a tale of sex, lies, murder, chainsaws, anal beads, and of course....
skillets. From the Artistic Director, Andy Batt : If Clowntime Is Over
represents MadLab's mind, then Skillet Tag is its gut. It's a show that's just
freaking hilarious, irreverent, fast-paced, violent, and did I say funny? It's
a great send-up of the classic parlor plays where characters keep coming in and
out of the same room from a dozen different doors/directions. This one is just
a bit more on the edge than most.
