TPT announced its May production of DUMB SHOW by Joe Penhall. The Promethean Theatre is no stranger to the work of Joe Penhall having staged a critically acclaimed production of his award-winning BLUE/ORANGE.
Helming the production is Carbonell-nominated Director Margaret M. Ledford. The cast features Carbonell Award-winning actor, Gregg Weiner, David Sirois and The Promethean Theatre's Co-Founder and Producing Artistic Director, Deborah L. Sherman.
DUMB SHOW is a searing account of tabloid journalisim, the value of fame and the overstepping of personal boundaries in the world of celebrity-worship and gossip mongers.
DUMB SHOW offers a mesmerising, utterly persuasive account of a classic tabloid sting...a furious, black-comic satire on the bankrupt values of our tabloid culture." -Daily Telegraph ( London ).
"...a funny, furious tirade against the unlovely practise of entrapment journalism and the agent provocateur journalists who do its dirty work." -Guardian ( London ).
"Joe Penhall's drama is brilliantly written and shaped and unpeels with a flourish...Joe Penhall, who is a very funny writer, makes us think hard about what constitutes a good joke, what makes a good story." -Observer ( London ).
