Ooh, you feel that on your neck? That tantalizing whisper? That’s capitalism, and she wants you bad.

OBIE Award winning artist Jenn Kidwell and Brandon Kazen-Maddox answer capitalism’s siren call in an evening of hysterical undertakings. The world premiere of we come to collect: a flirtation, with capitalism, instigated by the artistic collective the blackening, debunks the alluring tale of American economic might weaving stand-up comedy, performance art and the carnivalesque. You know you can’t resist.
