Martin McDonagh by way of Samuel Beckett (with just a splash of Philip Ridley), HOT STEAMS is a trippy, verbose, and startling play filled with enough twists, turns, and literary references to keep your head spinning and your stomach churning. Wegner has composed a relentlessly brutal deep-dive into the darkest parts of humanity, but his most remarkable trick is how deliriously entertaining he makes the ride. From the poetry of William Blake to waxing on the wonders of the human skull, HOT STEAMS weaves its macabre tale with a dark and giddy panache. Well done!
