Waiting for Mert

Synopsis:
Two burglars lie dead on the new carpet with axes in their foreheads, and the pistol-wielding third intruder finds himself in a standoff with an ax-throwing homeowner. The men are fearless toward each other, yet they find common ground--even friendship--in their shared fear of their own wives. Zettler combines the macabre outrageousness of Joe Orton with the humor of Bruce Jay Friedman in this delightful one-act black comedy, developed in the Experiments Series in 2005

Notes:
part of La Mama, E.T.C. presents the Experimenta! Festival, A 10th Anniversary celebration of its Experiments Playreading Series. The festival features full productions of six plays from the series.
