Original Works Publishing to Release Sigrid Gilmer's HARRY & THE THIEF
By: BWW News Desk Feb. 03, 2016
Just in time for Black History Month, Original Works Publishing is releasing the irreverent satirical play HARRY AND THE THIEF by acclaimed playwright Sigrid Gilmer.
Gilmer makes black comedies that are historically bent, totally perverse, joyfully irreverent and are concerned with issues of identity, pop culture and contemporary American society. She is a winner of the Map Fund Creative Exploration Grant, the James Irving Foundation Fellowship and is a USA Ford Fellow in Theatre.
About the play: Mimi's cousin Jeremy has a PhD in physics, a brand new time machine and a plan. He's sending Mimi, a professional thief, back to 1863 to change history by providing Harriet Tubman with modern day guns. Lots and lots of guns. Features a diverse cast of 10 actors.
HARRY & THE THIEF is available in print from Original Works (www.originalworksonline.com/HarryandtheThief) and Amazon and will be available in digital format on Kindle and Google Play. Official release date is February 12, 2016.
