Ecstasy of Steve Jobs</em> is an entertaining
mixture of personal storytelling, investigative
journalism, and moral activism. Actor / author /
commentator / playwright Mike Daisey uses his
razor-sharp wit to examine the 'cult of Mac' to
which he belongs, to give insight into the rise
of Apple around the iconic Steve Jobs, and to
reveal the working conditions at Apple's Chinese
supply factory, Foxconn.</font> </p>

style="font-size:13px" color="#000000"

has performed the piece before thousands
worldwide, and gained national media attention
following an appearance on Chicago Public
Radio's <em>This American Life</em> on January
6, 2012 (which became the show's most downloaded
episode ever). The following week, Apple
announced that they would be making changes to
their production policies, which many attributed
to pressure generated by this monologue, and to
a workers' strike at Foxconn that occured in the
same week as the radio airing.</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font style="font-size:13px"
color="#000000" face="Arial, Helvetica,
sans-serif" size="2">On February 21, 2011, Mr.
Daisey released a transcript of <em>The Agony
and the Ecstasy of Steve Jobs</em> based on
his extemporaneous performances of the piece for
open public for use. It is believed that CVLT's
staged reading by Andrew Rothman, also a
life-long Apple enthusiast, writer and comedic
actor, will be the first theatrical production
of the transcript anywhere in the world.</font></p>
