We Won't Pay, We Won't Pay' will leave you in stitches

The great comedian Charlie Chaplin once said, "Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot." This remark rings especially true for the American Repertory Theater's production of Dario Fo's play, We Won't Pay, We Won't Pay. The play examines the lengths that people will go to in order to save face during desperate times. While the premise of the play may sound serious, it is in essence a humorous satire that revels in making fun of the desperation that pervades the character's lives.
