Calling all Jugglers, Fire Eaters, Freaks, Anarchist
Clowns, Radical Cheerleaders, Billionaire's for Bush's
War, Drummers, Drag Queens, Church Ladies for
Choice, Radical Rockettes, Gospel Singers, Musicians,
Chicks and Pricks for Perma-War, Puppetistas, Babes
for Bombs, Students for An Undemocratic Society,
Church of Stop Bombers, Reclaimers of Streets,
New Kids on the Black Bloc, and anybody and
everybody who thinks that this war is absurd:
In the tradition of the first Absurdists, who wrote
and performed and drew and danced in response
to the horror and devastation of World War,
we will create our own Theater of the Absurd in
response to our Idiot Boy King's relentless drive
to pitch the world into a state of permanent warfare.
The festivities will commence with a ritual "Bowing Down To The Mighty
Phallus," followed by a "hoisting of the balls of war" presided over by
Reverend Billy and the Church of Stop Bombing Gospel Choir.
From there it will be a free-form, multi-faceted, moving theater piece
which
anyone with imagination can plug into.
WHAT YOU CAN DO: Wear costumes, bring
INSTRUMENTS and NOISEMAKERS of all kinds,
bring posters and banners (sample slogans below).
Be prepared to mock the Axis of Oil without mercy.

-Regime Change Begins At Home
-OBEY

"Democracy" or any other
Noble-Idea-Twisted-Into-Orwellian-Knots-War.

Mandela to CIA
director
