Hopkins What am I doing here and what is going to happen to me? It is the question of the archetypal Everyman, no matter the gender, in our disconnected American culture. TUTA Theatre Chicago crafts a beautiful collection of answers to these questions. Fulton Street Sessions is an assemblage of sketch and song; a fresh and sometimes disconcerting take on how we communicate and try to make sense of this often insane world. The play starts with a birth of sorts. Trey Maclin stands alone under harsh florescent lights. Some ideologies would call his character a soul about to be born and, indeed, he is given a literal baptism in an Absurdist sketch on following protocol. The rest of the ensemble appears in parkas and carrying what he will need to participate in their society. No words are spoken and yet hilarity ensues.
