A thief is on the loose, and he wants to see if you can take a joke. Hello! Sadness! is a dark comedy that weaves a story from Joan of Arc to the Black Panther Party to misogynist stand-up to awkward French New Wave dancing. With imagination, visual projections, and a perfectly interspersed sound design, audiences move about from the here and now to 1960s Chicago, an intoxicating poppy field, fifteenth century France, a street run by prostitutes, a museum, a trial, aspeeding car, a secret place of joy and rage.
Mary Tuomanen proposes humor as a weapon for social activism—to laugh at the oppressor in all of us, then punch him in the face.
