Cooperative Village (Carol MRP Co., 2007) is a boldly comic social and political satire offered up to progressive people everywhere as a rallying cry in opposition to the Bush administration and the institutions and values that prop it up. Called “smart, macabre satire of the War on Terror” by Washington City Paper and selected as the National Organization for Women (NOW) NYC’s June ’08 Book Club pick, the wickedly uproarious novel is now an equally outrageous one-woman show. The play, performed by the author, dramatizes the consequences to an ordinary American woman when she becomes subject to the USA PATRIOT Act as a result of LCIT—Library Card Identity Theft. The show runs 50 minutes without intermission and is meant to entertain and inspire.
