HUNTER GATHERERS
by Peter Sinn Nachtrieb - A Sacramento Premiere!
FOR MATURE AUDIENCES

May 14 - June 27

Pam and Richard are hosting their best friends, Wendy and Tom, for a monthly dinner get-together. But what begins as a celebratory gathering between beloved acquaintances soon erupts into a chain reaction of unearthed secrets, pent-up feelings, secret rivalries, and sudden urges. A darkly comic evening where the line between civilized and primal man is blurred. So, what's for dinner? A freshly slaughtered lamb.

"...an aggressively funny play about our primal, cave-man impulses, man's need to hump (or kill) everything in sight and woman's need for chocolate..." - Oakland TribuneSchedule

 

 

 

 



" Nachtrieb's wickedly funny Hunter Gatherers...mashes up two venerable dramatic themes into a caustic, hysterical romp."
- Marcus Crowder, The Sacramento Bee

 
" Always thoroughly top-notch, the troupe at Capital Stage has outdone themselves with this savage piece."
- Kel Munger, Sacramento News & Review

"...if chaos and belly-laughs are what you're after, this unrestrained satire will fill the bill."
- Jeff Hudson, Capital Public Radio
