Mike Daisey returns to Berkeley Rep in an incredible doubleheader: two provocative new monologues that examine our obsession with commerce. In The Agony and the Ecstasy of Steve Jobs, Daisey examines how the CEO of Apple and his obsessions profoundly shape our everyday lives—and travels to China to investigate the factories where millions toil to make iPhones and iPods. With The Last Cargo Cult, Daisey visits a remote island in the South Pacific whose inhabitants worship America and its goods at the base of an erupting volcano, spurring a soul-searching assessment of what money means and who is paying the price.
