F*cking Heathens or How I Learned to Die
A Guy Walks into a Bar

It was Shakespeare, or possibly someone else, who established that when a guy walks into a bar, we should expect the unexpected. Playwright Aniello Fontano continues the tradition, bringing audiences into a Chicago bar room for a birthday gathering of friends where “bottom-shelf booze and drug stained memories spark debates about God, family, addiction and George Michael.” Standard-issue stuff, right? Except when an unexpected confession flips the evening’s script. Will our heroes remember it tomorrow? Find out at the reading of Fontano’s F*ucking Heathens or How I Learned to Die this April 13 or April 14 at 2pm as part of the 2019 Linnell Festival of New Plays at the UNM Experimental Theater on the UNM campus. It’s free, but maybe don’t bring the kids. (Clarke Condé)
