Synopsis

Jim Bently has a quest. He must get dressed.

The Song of Bently is a tale told by a bard of one man’s great adventure in attempting to get his clothes on in morning. With aid of his trusty dog, the Eternally Sweatered Slappy, Bently battles all: the putting on of socks, the choosing between a blue and a black shirt, and finally, the terrible trial of the missing pants. His battles will rock the cosmos to its core, and alter the very fabric of realty, as long as he’s not super late to work. Such is the nature of The Song of Bently: The song is un-extraordinary…and somewhat uninteresting! 

Performance History
