SLASHER Plays Kitchen Dog Theater Thru 12/12
Kitchen Dog Theater presents the southwest premiere of Slasher, by Allison Moore. Slasher opened on November 13 and will run through December 12. This production is directed by Tina Parker.
When she's cast as the "last girl" in a low-budget slasher flick, Sheena thinks it's the big break she's been waiting for. But news of the movie unleashes her malingering mother's thwarted feminist rage, and Mom is prepared to do anything to stop filming...even if it kills her.
Allison Moore is a displaced Texan living in Minneapolis, where she is a 2007-2009 Bush Artists Fellow and a 2008-2009 McKnight Fellow. Her plays include End Times (World Premiere - Kitchen Dog Theater), American Klepto (Illusion Theater), Hazard County (2005 Humana Festival/NNPN World Premiere with KDT and Actors' Express in Atlanta), Urgent Fury (2003 Cherry Lane Mentor Project) and Eighteen (2001 O'Neill Playwrights' Conference/KDT World Premiere).
Tickets range in price from $15-$25 and can be purchased via www.brownpapertickets.com.
It is the mission of Kitchen Dog Theater to provide a place where questions of justice, morality, and human freedom can be explored. Plays are chosen that challenge moral and social consciences, invite audiences to be provoked, challenged, and amazed. Kitchen Dog Theater believes that the theater is a site of individual discovery as well as a force against conventional views of the self and experience. It is not a provider of answers, but an invitation to question. Since theater of this kind is not bound by any tradition, Kitchen Dog Theater is committed to exploring these questions whether they are found in the classics, contemporary works, or new plays.
