FUSION Theatre Company is thrilled to launch our PROFOUND Autumn season with Wakey, Wakey by Will Eno. FUSION veteran Robb Sisneros (Witch, The Real Inspector Hound, Meteor Shower) directs John San Nicolas (Witch, Life X 3, Old Times) in the role of Guy and Alicia Lueras Maldonado (Life X 3 and The Seven 2024) as Lisa.

"A work of humor, humanity and grace that makes you want to hug your lover, your neighbor and maybe an usher on the way out鈥� Eno breaks the fourth wall but here he also suggests a wondrous fifth鈥�" 鈥擵ariety

"Is it now? I thought I had more time." These first words in Will Eno's play are spoken by Guy, a man who knows, like all of us, on some level, that he will eventually die. Eno鈥檚 funny and moving play offers one of the most profound meditations and gifts that any playwright has given on what it means to be a human being. A grounding and authentic response to the goings-on in our world, Wakey, Wakey reminds us of what this life is about, including the great leveler of us all.

鈥淭o be honest鈥�I can tend to float away from the really, really simple important things and kind of get distracted by the hoo-ha of modern life. I hope there are people like me who just need sometimes to be reminded of those simple things and try to connect them in a calm but also urgent way.鈥� 鈥擶ill Eno

Wakey, Wakey premiered at the Signature Theatre in New York City in February 2017 under the direction of Will Eno. The work marked his completed Residency Five Fellowship at the Signature Theatre, which premiered his play Title and Deed in 2012, The Open House in 2014, and Wakey, Wakey in 2017.
