DESCRIPTION:Starring Stanford Summer Theater veterans Marty Pistone, Courtney Walsh, 
 Ben Fisher, and Max Sosna-Spear, Curse of the Starving Class is a comedy 
 with a difference. An American family filled with strangely lovable 
 characters lives out its delusions and fantasies with hilarious energy and 
 willful denial. Like a lottery whose payoff rises each week but no one ever 
 wins the jackpot, Curse of the Starving Class leads us over the rainbow, 
 always hungry for something more, and for some way home.\n \nWritten in 
 1976, Curse of the Starving Class is eerily prophetic, its world built on 
 bad loans, speculation in land and real estate, and the little man’s 
 struggle against the corporate “zombies” who run the country into the 
 ground while laughing their way to the bank. A hilarious, brilliantly 
 crafted, and deeply affecting play, Curse of the Starving Class takes us 
 back through our cultural history and forward towards our wildest dreams.\n 
 \nCurse of the Starving Class plays Thursday – Sunday, July 19 through 
 August 12, in the Pigott Theater, a 190-seat gem on the Stanford campus.
