INDIANAPOLIS — On May 11, the White Rabbit Cabaret in Fountain Square will kick off a limited run of performances featuring performing artist Ben Asaykwee in two back-to-back one man shows as a double feature. Angel Academy and SatanLIVE will run May 11 at 8 p.m., May 17 at 8 p.m. and May 26 at 9 p.m. with Angel being the opening 50 minutes piece followed by Satan appearing after a short break.
Angel Academy is a comic, musical journey through your first moments in heaven as you encounter the angels who will guide and train you for your time in the afterlife. Part “TedX” and part live “Badly executed training video”, this uproarious 50 minutes will keep you laughing and thinking through the pearly gates. Angel Academy is Asaykwee’s latest installment in his “7 for 17″ project where he is producing seven new plays in the span of this year.
SatanLIVE is a revival of Asaykwee’s popular 2011 IndyFringe show featuring a jazzy, hilarious visit from the evil one. With original music and biblical reference galore, this raunchy 55 minute one man show is sure to satisfy the naughty in you without a full “soul selling” being necessary.
Ben Asaykwee, an Indianapolis playwright, composer, director, producer, and actor has written and produced plays in the Midwest 2009. The artist was recently recognized by the Central Indiana Community Foundation as a VIP theatre artist in an award program, kicking of the “next 100 years” of great Indianapolis art.
The White Rabbit Cabaret is at 1116 Prospect Street in the neighborhood of Fountain Square, Indianapolis. information on this and other events can be found at www.whiterabbitcabaret.com
