Waiting For The Electrician, Or Someone Like Him & Temporarily Humboldt County

Bag om Waiting For The Electrician, Or Someone Like Him & Temporarily Humboldt County

This collection includes two short plays: WAITING FOR THE ELECTRICIAN, OR SOMEONE LIKE HIM and TEMPORARILY HUMBOLDT COUNTY. WAITING FOR THE ELECTRICIAN, OR SOMEONE LIKE HIM is a mad Kafkaesque journey that takes a confused tourist into a shadowy world of Byzantine fascists. TEMPORARILY HUMBOLDT COUNTY is a short history of European expansion and Native American displacement. "The Beatles of comedy." -Library of Congress "The Firesign Theatre is a comedy group that uses the recording studio at least as brilliantly as any rock group ..." -Robert Christgau "... [Firesign is] the funniest team in America today, combining elements of W C Fields, James Joyce, Lord Buckley, contemporary television and Thirties radio, scrambling it all up in a collective consciousness that defies description, and then spewing it out in a free-form half-hour epic presentation of sheer insanity ... Their timing is dynamite, their dialog kaleidoscopic, and their satire is, so to speak, acidic. WAITING FOR THE ELECTRICIAN ... a masterpiece of paranoia." -Ed Ward, Rolling Stone
