Synopsis: No Cure for Cancer is an uproarious and lacerating meditation on life—and death—by a celebrated new voice on the performance scene. Based on writer-performer Denis Leary's hit Off-Broadway show, this rapid-fire monologue sends up society and its ills—disease, drugs, crime, junk culture, the recovery movement, pious political correctness, urban life, and above all, our fear of mortality—with wicked satire and insight.
