Theatre Synesthesia to Present New Play THE BRUTES by Casey Wimpee
Theatre Synesthesia presents the world premiere of Casey Wimpee's new play, "The Brutes."
1861 - Four Brutes await their orders in The Shadows as the Booth family of actors begins rehearsals of a benefit performance of 'Julius Caesar.' Edwin Booth can't stop the phantasm of his deceased father, world-renowned stage actor Junius Brutus Booth, from demanding he run lines from 'Hamlet', Junius Jr. is hopeful to work with his family for the first time, their sister, Asia, is trying to keep the production, and a flailing marriage, from falling apart and John Wilkes is late, as usual.
Family strife, clashing political ideologies, dead birds and a Thanksgiving dinner to remember.
Performances run Fridays - Saturdays, November 30th - December 16th at 8 p.m. at The Backpack. $15 advance ticket sales at thebrutes.brownpapertickets.com; $20 tickets available at the door.
