Chinese Whispers:
​Christmas in The Air Tonight

Written with Tim Racine and Andrew Schoen
A play of miscommunications, misrepresentations and creeping illogical chaos brought to you in the avante garde comedy style of Zombie Fortress Arts Collective, Chinese Whispers is the smash hit about Santa, Phil Collins, closeted gay cops, urban legends, and mostly just creating the highest joke-to-page ratio possible with the least necessary continuity.           

3 men          Running time 1 hour, 10 minutes.

"This new show from gonzo performers Chrisler, Racine and Schoen is a parody of, and homage to, the police procedural buddy-cop genre... off-its-rocker genius... sublimely ridiculous." -Kris Vire, Time Out
"Playwright-performers Mark Chrisler, Tim Racine, and Andy Schoen slouch, goof, and rip their way through this cunningly inconsequential satire of police procedural dramas, in which Santa is found dead in Lake Michigan. The jokes are never obvious, and whip-smart performances exploit the intentionally tin-eared dialogue." -Justin Hayford, Chicago Reader
