THEATER: Busy Brooklyn theater company Sponsored By Nobody is representing at the Fringe with their absurdist satire on uptight whiteys, not from canada. Three “unusually white” people are determined to have a nice dinner at the restaurant, never mind the fact that they have no recollection of their arrival or of each other. But the waiter refuses to take their order!
