Cave Theatre Company's Torchlight Series to Debut at UNDER St. Marks, 5/27

New York @ Horse Trade will present Cave Theatre Company's Torchlight Series: Shining a Light on Unusual Text every last Wednesday of the Month beginning May 27th at UNDER St. Marks (94 St. Marks Place between 1st Avenue and Avenue A) at 7pm. Tickets ($10) may be purchased in advance at www.horseTRADE.info.

May's Torchlight Series is Missed Connections Theatre, monologues and scenes composed entirely from New York's Craigslist Missed Connections' section. Cave Theatre will explore the hilarity, despair, and hope found within Missed Connections written by anonymous New Yorkers and directed by James Masciovecchio.

It is within caves that the first art appeared - tales of humanity carved or painted on the rock walls. Our ancestors walked deep into the earth away from all light and created stories with paint, with fire, with song. We now venture into the dark as our ancestors did and strive to do the same. The lines and shadows flicker and dance in our torchlight. The flickers on the walls create visions of worlds unknown. In this dark, raw, and fertile space - in this cave - anything is possible.
