The current show
Bin Laden's Favorite White Boy
Written and performed by Ben Tschirgi · 60 minutes · No intermission, no stage required
"When I was eleven years old, I became convinced Osama bin Laden was coming to kill me. So I wrote a musical about it."
This is a 60 minute one person musical performed by Ben Tschirgi using an acoustic guitar, a microphone, a small speaker and minimal props.
It is part concert, part comedy, part theatrical fever dream: a true story about growing up scared in America, told through songs that are funnier and sadder than they have any right to be.
Because the whole show fits in a car, it can happen anywhere people can sit down and pay attention. Living rooms, churches, community spaces, backyards, galleries, bookstores and coffee shops all work.
