Make America Laugh Again

Make America Laugh Again is bringing us “the movie we need right now” -- and a good dose of laughter to go along with it. Titled “Why Torture is Wrong, and the People Who Love Them,” written by Christopher Durang, is a film that will be based on an Off-Broadway production that’s been performed all over the world. The script centers on a woman who married a Muslim while drunk -- and doesn’t remember a thing. To make matters more interesting, her father is a right-wing Republican who things Zamir is a terrorist, and the events that unfold from there have had critics raving. The show isn’t just a comedy, but deals with very real issues of xenophobia, islamophobia, and violence against women in a cathartic, authentic, and entertaining way. As LA Weekly stated, “The laughter he generates is from nonsense about nonsense, unnervingly true and cathartic, and beautifully performed.”
