Playwright George F. Walker's Dead Metaphor — "a hilarious dark comedy about the hypocrisies of postwar living" — will gets its premiere Jan. 17-Feb. 10, 2013. Irene Lewis directs.
Dead Metaphor is billed this way: "When Dean returns home from the war in Iraq, he discovers that his superior sniper skills don't get him very far in the working world. He readjusts to non-bunker life by moving in with his parents and pregnant ex-wife, then takes the only job he can get — with a crusading politician on her own mission for 'truth and justice.'"
All performances are at The American Conservatory Theater at
415 Geary Street in San Francisco.
