Synopsis

Brilliant, hilarious, mind-bending, and provocative: The Pajama Men are all this wrapped in their night clothes. Mark Chavez and Shenoah Allen have created a highly original evening of theatre that evokes laughter and wonder as the two employ their considerable intellectual and physical skills to create multiple worlds and characters on a bare stage. From a wary knight and his murderous horse to the star-crossed romance between a 7 year old girl and an alien – The Pajama Men will amaze you with the agility of their performances and the depth of their wit.
