The mission of Maximum Verbosity will be to stimulate questions; more specifically, to interpret old mythology through the lens of the new and, perhaps more importantly, to interpret our new mythology through the lens of the old, with an especial focus on the use of language to create myth. This aproach implies a willingness to embrace creative anachronism and to explore issues of religion, spirituality, and politics across a wide variety of genres and disciplines. The troupe will function as a decentralized collective of individuals without relying on state recognition or support.

What does that last sentence mean? That Maximum Verbosity relies on donations from individuals in order to continue producing shows. We won't accept money taken from taxpayers under threat of fine, imprisonment, or force (specifically, we will neither pursue nor accept money from the NEA or the Minnesota State Arts Board); what that means is that, if you want to see more of our work, we desperately require your voluntary help.

Sonnet Fundraiser

For every donation of $20.00 or more, I will compose a sonnet in the style and on the topic of your choice. If you want a sonnet about marrying the Pastor Fred Phelps and raising dozens of fat grandchildren in Rwanda, I will so write. If this is something you're interested in, just shoot a quick e-mail to the address on our contact page and simply articulate your desire. Your wish (plus a minimum twenty-dollar donation) is my command.

Online Store

Or if you want something emblazoned across your chest in exchange for supporting the company, never fear: we have an online store at CafePress, featuring T-shirts with snarky quotes from some of our productions over the years. Pay us to advertise our product! Mother of God, I love capitalism.
