The Old Cart Wrangler’s Saga: A Fully Blown, Full Length, Fully Baked Comic Monologue

We’ve all seen that lone shopping cart sitting on the edge of a parking lot. Who goes and gets it and brings it home? The cart wrangler, of course.

Brimming with easy humor, fantasy, and wisdom, David Ossman—of Firesign Theatre fame—gives the performance of a lifetime in this theatrical full-length monologue backed by a crack Kansas City jazz trio and recorded before a live audience at the Brick in downtown Kansas City, Missouri, on June 6, 2018.

Mixing voice, eclectic jazz, and sound effects, this performance breaks sound-art boundaries and may even break your heart.

Told in three parts:

1. Cart 437 or The Long Way Around

2. Cart 437 2.0

3. Cart 437 3.0 Potemkin

Includes a bonus interview with David Ossman and Brian Price

With Reverend Dwight Frizzell, woodwinds; Julia Thro, guitar; Patrick Alonzo Smith Conway, percussion; Tony Brewer, sound effects.

Executive producers: Judith Walcutt and Jerry Stearns
