Enron, Timeline Theatre at Baird Hall, through April 15. This true-life saga of corporate crime is recounted by Lucy Prebble as a grotesque fantasy-fable with Stef Tovar now playing an antihero as flawed as any found in Shakespeare. MSB
Fela!, Cadillac Palace Theatre, through April 15. Out choreographer/director Bill T. Jones has crafted an exuberantly colorful and theatrical tribute to the controversial Nigerian musician and activist Fela Kuti. The pulsing Afrobeat score is infectious. SCM
The Oxford Roof Climbers Rebellion, Caffeine Theatre at Lincoln Square Theatre, through April 14. “You’re the most dangerous man I know,” says poet Robert Graves, “Yes, isn’t it frightening?” answers T.E. Lawrence before proceeding to show us why in Steven Massicote’s pristine (but still oh-so-hot) history play. MSB
Pinocchio/Frankenstein, Neo-Futurists, through April 14. Frankenstein’s nameless monster waxes profound relating the grotesque but bourgeois moral tale of another handmade creature, Pinocchio. Metaphysics meets the meta-theatrical in this clever (if overly long) adaptation. JA
