The Gas Heart
How does the Oxford English Dictionary define "bootylicious"? Is Helvetica really a fascist typeface? Can I get an STD from unprotected twittering? Find horribly unscientific answers to these and more imperative questions of our time in a modern adaptation of a classic from the Dada movement. Aptly described by its author as "the greatest three act hoax of the century," The Gas Heart searches through the skivvies of our society to reveal the senselessness in our world today: politics, pop culture, and potato chips in 2009.
