Rich. Lives. Matter. An uncomfortable, unspoken yet unsurprising rallying cry for the 1%, our most important minority group. We ought to speak more about how much the lives of the rich matter. A stable world may depend on us being able to process the distorting gravity of wealth consolidation. These are the thoughts of Winston Goldstein, a man inside and outside the system. Come for an enriching and rebellious evening as he speaks and sings profane truth to power... until he gets lost in the dizzying, disturbing, absurdity of it all. Your splendid cocktail will be a delicious blend of private jets and Radiohead, Charles Darwin and the CEO-worker pay gap, AI and Ayn Rand, $pace travel, $ugar babies, Maslow, blackholes, the Buddha and The Beatles, garnished with the crushed bones of the middle class. Best with a tiger penis soup chaser, but a glass of rum from 1861 also works. The show includes several purpose-written original songs.
