Sea of Fools July 4, 2007

'Sea of Fools' is set in the height of the McCarthy era. This world premiere farce glimpses a company of actors who live in an elaborately-constructed fantasy world. As they mourn the passing of their leader, an undercover FBI agent infiltrates the funeral in the guise of a gossip columnist's assistant. The entire company freely admits to being "Commies," and when Elia Kazan joins the party, it's anyone's guess what that actually means.
