Show Description:
TOILET FIRE: Rectums in the Rectory
is a celebration and ceremony of the one thing that unites us all: our need to go. Using the structure of an ancient religious ritual to talk about matters of digestion, philosophy, and faith,
TOILET FIRE: Rectums in the Rectory
explodes with song, audience participation, and unexpected textual twists.
TOILET FIRE
features such characters as an elderly Peest (priest), a sullen teen (alter-girl), a talkative flight attendant (cantor), and a variety of congregants with an assortment of ailments. By the end of this tour-de-toots, the trappings of a religious service fall away and
TOILET FIRE
reverts to a
solo show with the real Eliza Bent
talking and ultimately asking: How can we best relieve suffering? There will be puns. There will be poo.
Written and performed by Eliza Bent
with Alaina Ferris
Part of the Exponential Festival 2015

REVIEWS
“In using the distancing effects of language as a blunt instrument simultaneously to create strangeness and cut more deeply to the heart of human experience, Ms. Bent follows a long tradition of adventuresome playwrights.”
—Claudia La Rocco, New York Times
