Chopin Theatre presents Slawomir  Mrozek’s “Out at Sea”, an extremely smart and brilliantly absurd comedy about 4 people stranded on a raft trying, through various social and political manipulations, to decide whom they can justly devour.  There are many different intrepretations of this comedy most of them very relevant to the upcoming Presidential election.   


"Out at Sea" has previewed at Chopin  Theatre and presented at School of the Art Institute Chicago; University of Ill Chicago; NIU-Dekalb; Indiana Univ Northwest; Loyola University Chicago; Chicago High School for the Arts and in living and conference rooms across Illinois. 

The 2015 production is supported in part by Consulate General of the Republic of Poland in Chicago, WPB SSA#33 and Chopin Theatre.
