About the Show

The Tank and Theater of The Apes present this world premiere musical comedy about a man on a quest to destroy modernity, written by Greg Kotis ("Urinetown").

From the show:

Lucas is done with manufacturing highly specialized silicon microchips for cell phones, and all the other evils of this modern world! Can his coworker, Nathaniel and Naomi, the singer-songwriter/waitress he met last night, race across the country fast enough to reach Lucas before he destroys modernity? (And is this the sort of scenario in which romance might possibly ensue? Asking for a friend...)

Critic Reviews (2)

"'I Am Nobody' touches on some of the most important issues facing us, burying them in a blaze of self-regarding silliness. It the most unfortunate thing I have seen in some time."

"Something of a road movie…plenty of humor…some well-sung songs…not much of a plot, although it does have a few surprises…The biggest surprise might be to those expecting, underneath the Kotis characteristic wackiness, his usual sharp satire and spot-on parody."
