TINGS DEY HAPPEN by Dan Hoyle

Dan Hoyle is taking TINGS DEY HAPPEN, his award-winning, solo play about Nigerian oil politics, on a whirlwind tour of Nigeria, sponsored by the U.S. State Department. The show, based on Hoyle's year in Nigeria studying oil politics on a Fulbright Scholarship, will travel to five cities in two weeks this October as part of the State Department's public diplomacy focus on anti-corruption issues.

To help Hoyle prepare for perhaps his most important audience yet, The Marsh will present a short nine-show revival of TINGS DEY HAPPEN during the last three weekends in September.

Developed with and directed by solo performance master Charlie Varon, TINGS DEY HAPPEN is a riveting adventure story, a geopolitical tour de force about the year Hoyle spent exploring the West African oil frontier. The Niger Delta has been targeted as the "new Middle East" of oil security and is an extremely dangerous place. Hoyle traveled alone around the swamps, befriending militants, warlords, diplomats, activists and prostitutes. Even the U.S. ambassador sought him out to find out what was going on. In this time of rising energy politics, and as witnessed by the State Departments invitation, the show remains, if anything, even more relevant than when it premiered in 2007.
