The Liminal Playhouse to Stage EDWARD GANT'S AMAZING FEATS OF LONELINESS
by BWW News Desk - May 15, 2022
Artistic Director Tony Prince and Producing Director Richard McGrew announce that The Liminal Playhouse is going out with a bang with its nineteenth Louisville premiere and final production: “Edward Gant’s Amazing Feats of Loneliness” by Anthony Neilson opening May 26. Written in 2008 but set in 1881, this play is the final performance of a Victorian theatre troupe led by an opium addict.
