Foating Brothel: Monday, October 27th, 8pm, $5
In this production, five actors tell the story of a ship full of
convict women pulled out of their world in the underbelly of London and
thrust into the helm of a ship sailing to a unknown continent where
they will begin their lives anew.
This epic journey is performed entirely within the confines of a 3’x6′
platform that the actors never step off of. With the help of a few
everyday objects, they transform the playing space from the bustle and
noise of London, to the dank bilge of a ship and the harrowing voyage
across the sea to a new world.
At a time when the public can step into a movie theater and be amazed
by the results of big budgets and special effects, audiences are
reminded why theater is exceptional and extraordinary: the actors amaze
the audience by telling an epic story from a small wooden platform.
