WIREHEAD Opens at The Echo Theater Company
The Echo Theater Company is proud to present the world premiere of Wirehead, a new play by Matthew Benjamin and Logan Brown, directed by Larry Biederman. Wirehead is set to open on Saturday, February 13 at 8:00pm. The engagement runs through Sunday, March 14 only.
Wirehead is a hilarious and provocative cautionary tale that contemplates the evolving synthesis of technology and humanity. Wires, chips and chargers designed to enhance the mind prove too good for the mind to handle. Short-circuited by resentment and jealousy in the hands of humans, too much intelligence now possessed by the non-human electronic elements has riotous and gruesome results.
Directed by award-winning theatre director Larry Biederman, the cast of Wirehead will feature (in alphabetical order) Jeremy Maxwell, Riel Paley, Ethan Phillips ("Star Trek: Voyager"), Marc Rose, Amanda Saunders, and Sam Shelton. The critically acclaimed design team includes set by Efren Delgadillo, Jr., lighting by Dan Weingarten, sound by Drew Dalzell, and costumes by Audrey Eisner. Producers for the Echo Theater Company are Lauren Bass and Chris Fields.
Wirehead will play two preview performances on Thursday, February 11 and Friday, February 12 at 8:00pm. Opening night is set for Saturday, February 13 at 8:00. THE MEDIA IS ENCOURAGED TO ATTEND THE OPENING NIGHT PERFORMANCE ON FEBRUARY 13, BUT IS ALSO WELCOME AT ANY OTHER PERFORMANCE. The five-week only engagement will end on Sunday, March 14. Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00pm and Sundays at 7:00pm at Stage 52, located at 5299 W. Washington Boulevard in Los Angeles, 90016. Tickets are $20 and may be purchased by visiting www.echotheatercompany.com or by calling 800-413-8669.
