Synopsis

Alfred Jarry’s merde-filled masterpiece of 1896, Ubu Roi, meets the internationally renowned antics, absurdities and obscenities of Toronto’s mayor and brother, Rob and Doug Ford, in One Little Goat’s first play to feature live music. Just in time for Toronto’s highly anticipated municipal elections…

Ubu Mayor involves a mayor (Ubu) whose wife (Huhu) is having an affair with his older brother (Dudu). Ubu wants Huhu to love him again; Ubu wants what’s best for the city; but both his love and political ideals are foiled by brother Dudu’s machinations. (onelittlegoat.org)
