“An astounding achievement. Unforgettable.” Broadway World
Set in a mythical totalitarian state, The Pillowman centers around a writer of surreal stories that feature children coming to nasty, fairytale-like ends. When a series of murders that echo those stories take place in the writer's hometown, the writer is hauled in by the police for questioning.
Starring acclaimed actors Jackie Torrens, Theo Pitsiavas, Mary-colin Chisholm and Matthew Lumley. The play also features the puppetry of Lohifi Productions' Christopher Little and Pitsiavas.
Tickets are $25 for regular admission, $20 for students, artists and seniors. Available on eventbrite; limited tickets available at the door.
