This Lurking Thing
relates a triptych of frightening tales where the living are far more feared than the dead - the true and grisly history of a Dracula wannabe, the macabre bedtime story of an infirm woman, and the biography of a man who presides as a living ghost. Each story reveals the scarier side of presenting our true selves. This Lurking Thing includes an adaptation of a short story by fantasy and science fiction writer Esther Friesner. It was presented October 27th, 2011 as a workshop production at Dixon Place in NYC, and produced by The Artful Conspirators. This production was originally work-shopped in the winter of 2010 at Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater as part of their Playwriting Lab series. |
1905

1905 tells the story of six immigrants in a rural Nebraska community and their preparation for a travelling screening of the first of-length motion picture, The Great Train Robbery. 1905 was presented in 2010 with the help of a Visioning Grant from and at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. |
