If You See Something Say Something

Directed by Jean-Michele Gregory

Created and Performed by MIKE DAISEY
Directed by JEAN-MICHELE GREGORY

"Ambitious, persuasive and provocative—Mr. Daisey is as much a performer as a raconteur. Funny, shrewd and continually absorbing." THE NEW YORK TIMES

"Once again, Mike Daisey has proven himself that rare theatrical creature: An entertaining performer with something valuable to say. A gripping, vital story." VARIETY

“Daisey has a masterful command of his art—he is all-powerful. When he wants you to laugh, you laugh; when he wants you to think, you think. He doesn't draw you into the deftly woven stories he tells—rather, he shows how, unawares, you have been part of them all along." TIME OUT NEW YORK

"Highly entertaining—freewheeling, free-associative, and thought-provoking." NEW YORK POST

NEW YORK PREMIERE

Called “The Master Storyteller” by The New York Times for his groundbreaking monologues, Mike Daisey returns to the intimate setting of Joe’s Pub to tackle a story at the very core of our world today. With his signature style commentary, at once biting and hilarious, Daisey investigates the secret history of the Department of Homeland Security through the untold story of the father of the neutron bomb and a personal pilgrimage to the Trinity blast site. If You See Something Say Something takes us on a journey in search of what it means to be secure and the price we are willing to pay for it.
