What are you addicted to? Hamburgers? Video games? Oil of olay? Set in the underworld of a corporate monarchy, Kabaret Citizens Inc. stars Dee Jones as Lady Excess [the CEO] and her corporate whores Natasha Pedros, Cole Lewis, Miles Coverdale and Steve Watson. This raucous presentation is an evening of wild performances, musical numbers, innovative movement, and racy scenes that explore consumer relationships to corporations as sickness and addiction. At the climax of the show is a vignette, directed by Cole Lewis, starring Jessica Carmichael, Edwin Conroy Jr. and Miles Coverdale, branded The Corporate Western. Kabaret Citizens Inc. features original and live music by Joe Lapinski and Jay Peters and an ultra corporate design by modern furniture guru Don Dormady.

The project is collectively written by the Suitcase In Point (SIP) ensemble and has been a work in progress since June 2003. It has been made possible through a grant awarded by the City of St. Catharines and sponsorship by the Merchant Ale House. SIP is presenting the show in conjunction with Metasizing Capital: The Size of Unbridled Growth a conference being held at Brock University. The three day event is organized by the Faculty of Social Science and the Humanity Research Group and features keynote speaker, Italian moral and political philsopher, Antonio Negri.
