Apollinaire Theatre Company Ends Run of NEIGHBORHOOD 3: Requisition of Doom 3/14

Apollinaire Theatre Company's production of Neighborhood 3: Requisition of Doom will end its run on March 14th. The show is written by by Jennifer Haley and features an ensemble of 8 directed by Fauteux Jacques.

In an upscale subdivision with identical houses, parents find their teenagers addicted to an online horror video game. The game setting? A subdivision with identical houses. The goal? Smash through an army of zombies to escape the neighborhood for good. But as the line blurs between virtual and reality, both parents and players realize that fear has a life of its own.

Neighborhood 3 features an ensemble of 8, including Carolyn Charpie (The Savannah Disputation, SpeakEasy Stage), and from the cast of last season's dark play or stories for boys, Erez Rose (Emerson class of 2010) and Brian Quint (Eurydice, New Rep; The Kentucky Cycle & Stuff Happens, Zeitgeist Stage- Elliot Norton Award winners for Outstanding Production). Artistic Director Danielle Fauteux Jacques joins the cast and directs together with assistant director, Jim Fagan (Where the Magic Happens, SpeakEasy Stage).

Jennifer Haley is a Los Angeles-based playwright whose work has been developed around the country, most recently by the Lincoln Center Directors Lab and Naked Angels in New York City. She was a 2008 resident at the MacDowell and Millay artist colonies. Her play, Neighborhood 3: Requisition of Doom, was produced at the Actors Theatre of Louisville 2008 Humana Festival of New American Plays.
