Written by Stanislaw I. Witkiewicz
Translated by Daniel C. Gerould

Witkiewicz’ absurdist classic, The Crazy Locomotive, a macabre extravaganza of video, sculpture, hallucination, body art, dream sequences, industrialism and anti-fascist polemics was recently remounted as Trap Door’s touring piece. The Crazy Locomotive premiered in Chicago, enjoyed a run at The International New York Fringe Festival, and then came home to play a full run again in Chicago. In May of 2007, with a remounted cast, The Crazy Locomotive toured with two other Trap productions, Old Clown Wanted and Letters to the President, to Romania to perform in multiple venues.
