RENTERS IN EXILE
April 9 - 20, 2025 - EgoPo - TURDS IN HELL
A Masterpiece of the “Theater of the Ridiculous” movement
“This isn’t farce. This isn’t absurd. This is absolutely ridiculous!” -Brendan Gill, Theater critic
Join EgoPo in an underground gay club, grab a drink (or a new friend), and brace yourself for this rarely produced Camp masterpiece from the early days of the Ridiculous Theatrical Company. Originally staged at midnight in a Hell's Kitchen porn theater, Turds in Hell follows outcast Orgone as he traverses an amoral world of angels and devils to confront his mother for abandoning him at birth. Whether you’re a saint or a sinner, Turds in Hell is a riotous ride you won’t soon forget.
Included in all EgoPo Subscriptions and Memberships
Turds in Hell is sponsored by Ed & Susan Hoffman
Opening night sponsored by Barrie DuBois

AngelPirate Productions presents:
the Are We Free Yet? project
based on the book by Tina Strawn
curated, written & directed by TS Hawkins
(Director of Education at Theatre Exile)
Two Performances: 10/5 @ 1:30pm and 7:00pm
Through sound and verse, we sojourn in an afro-future encapsulated within a Sunday dinner unpacking decades and dynasties of epigenetic memories. Will the future ever progress against the past? Sauté and serenade with ANTIQUITY and DESTINEÉ as they prepare a table of life, love, and a longing to still be free.
LILITH AND HER DEMONS
Lilith and Her Demons
Adapted from Lilith and Her Demons by Enid Dame

Music and Lyrics by Sarah Norcross
Directed by Randi Alexis Hickey
(General Manager at Theatre Exile)
Arrangements & Music Direction by Damien Figueras
09/02 @ 7:00pm ($15.00 Admission)
In this modern-folk song cycle we meet the mythological she-demon, Lilith, in a hotel room after a one night stand with her cab driver. She's on the run, from herself and the demons she seems to create wherever she goes. How many lifetimes do we have to live before we get to see our redemption story through? Join us for a concert presentation of this piece in development.

FUN WITH JANE, a musical comedy
By Perri Gaffney, Stanley Harrison & Mitch Weiss
Jane is between a rock and a hard place. Tragic in love, she refuses to get involved again, but her new boss and recent promotion break down her defenses. Her first assignment gets her in deep trouble when she convinces two rich and powerful women to secretly use insider trading to raise $100 million dollars for their children's charity. Praise from her billionaire boss intoxicates her until she is threatened by a corrupt SEC agent. And then all hell breaks loose.
