Bringing home the bacon isn't as easy as it sounds. Set on a struggling family pig farm, the latest Broadway smash is a blacker-than-black comedy that debunks the American Dream."The day you count my pigs is the day I call you a man", says farmer Tom to his depressed hired hand Tim. But, as his wife Tina grows more frustrated, 15,000 swine break loose and an officer from the Environmental Protection Agency turns up, is it just Tim he needs to watch?
Pig Farm takes a swinefully funny look at government policy – expect razor-sharp dialogue, a shocking final twist and some truly hammy acting. This play is a surreal masterpiece that's guaranteed to make audiences hog seats.
Pig Farm was created by the Tony Award-winning writer Greg Kotis, who is best known for his work on the Fringe musical Urinetown (2002). The show made its off-Broadway debut in June 2006, and has continued to receive plaudits from theatregoers.
