There, he meets colorful types who help him finally discover his purpose in life. The show addresses, with humor, the anxiety today's young adults face when they realize that, in spite of what they've been told all their lives, their options are limited and they really aren't that special. With songs like "It Sucks to Be Me", "Everyone's a Little Bit Racist", "The Internet Is for Porn", and "I Wish I Could Go Back to College", this show is intended for mature audiences only. But any adult who isn't offended by brief, tasteful puppet nudity and brilliant satire must not miss the LOOK production of this 2004 Tony Triple Crown winner (Best Musical, Best Book, Best Original Score).
