The Tragedy of Cujo

"It was written into the fabric of time, that in the decade before and after 1600, a writer would come whose plays people would cherish for many centuries. So accidentally, God made that writer Steffon King. Now, 400 years later, God set about correcting His error. For what it's worth, let there be Shakespeare"

Are the plays of William Shakespeare really great? Or have we just been told that for so long.

What would happen if the literary icons such as Hamlet, MacBeth, Othello, were contemporary plays, and we studied Cujo, The Shining, Carrie and Christine.

THEATER
WORLD PREMIERE!



Present

Examine four separate lives connected by a burning thread. Regret. Journey into their mental prisons. Is it a comedy or a tragedy? Is it both? Can they move beyond the shadow? Or are they content to exist in the darkness? Is that light at the end of the tunnel? Or an oncoming train? Welcome to a command performance of a few tortured souls waiting out eternity somewhere very dark.

Stephanie Jackson & Bill Fountain

Shane Hamlin, Dana Harrison, Jennifer Obeney and Joe Porter

How does a self-made martyr face the world after he survives his final sacrifice? In Daniel Huntley Solon’s "Icarus: On Ice," a wrecked man battles to maintain a clean consciousness amongst flagrant corruption.

DANCE * COMEDY * PUPPETS

A Night at Miss Mimi's is an hour-long puppet show combining Japanese Bunraku and American Burlesque from the creative mind of New Orleans own Ricki Vincent of Gepetto's Dreams. Vincent is created 36-42" original puppets for this work, which is set at the notorious dance hall, Mimi’s House of Burlesque.

The characters include the hostess Miss Mimi, Baggy pants comic Little Pauly Penguin, Solange the wolf girl, Bubbles the Bunny, and male dancer Ja Lion. These puppets perform some of the actual routines made famous by real Burlesque stars of the early 20th century. The show is traditional Bunraku, with the puppeteers remaining in view of the audience as a way of educating viewers about the process and styles in which Vincent works.
