Victor Frange Presents Gas

Synopsis:
Using a treadmill and stationary bicycle to power the stage, amateur scholar Victor Frange sets out to present his late uncles never-before-seen adaptation of the 1918 expressionist play "Gas I." Part documentary-style theater, part adaptation, and largely ridiculous, Victor Frange Presents Gas examines three generations of idealist theater-makers in their quest to find a productive artistic response to humanitys voracious, unsustainable, appetite for all things energy-related. When Victor Frange inherits the substantial Frange Family agricultural fortune, he decides to fulfill his long-held dream of remounting the only production ever attempted by late uncle Terrys ill-fated 1960s Generator Generation theater collective: a not-so-seminal adaptation of Georg Kaisers 1918 expressionist play Gas I. Victors hired the best actors money can buy and sent them off to rehearse armed only with two documents: the Generator Generations rehearsal log (including diary entries, group prompts, and song lyrics); and the original text of Gas I. Tonights presentation is supposed to be the payoff: after decades of neglect, its finally time to reveal Uncle Terrys powerful utopian vision in its entirety. But its not quite going as planned. The eco-conscious (and luxury-tax evading) commitment to powering the show by self-generated energy sources is hard to pull off; the actors are struggling to make sense of the Generator Generations cryptic notes; and worst of all Victor keeps interrupting the show to interview the cast. When the actors declare their plan to replace Act IV of the script with a super-hero subplot, the whole evening threatens to come to a screeching halt.
