The Break-up of Cause and Effect

The Break-up of Cause and Effect

by Larry Jay Tish

Had its world premiere in 2013 at the Edinburgh Fringe/CVenues and then went on to the Rosemary Branch Theatre in London. The play reunited Larry (Effect) with the comedic genius of Rob DiNinni (Cause). Larry and Rob founded StageCoach Improv in 2003 and have a long history of sharing the stage together.

About the Show

Cause wants out of the Law of Causality. Cause drinks… Effect gets drunk! Cause meets a girl… Effect gets to sleep with her! But some laws are NOT made to be broken. Cause is tired of being the one who has to make all the effort, when his roommate gets all the glory. When Cause tells Effect that his friends Random, Risk, and Coincidence have encouraged him to end their thirteen billion year relationship, and follow his dream to be a circus clown – mayhem ensues. This hilarious two-hander explores the nature of fate, karma, destiny, coincidence, synchronicity, and personal responsibility with a Mel Brooksian glee.
