New Stage Version of THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME to Debut at Bedlam Lowertown, 1/14-17
By: BWW News Desk Dec. 01, 2014
St. Paul native, Joey Hamburger, has teamed up with his best friend Michael Hugh Torsch to recreate The Most Dangerous Game, the classic suspense story of the hunter becoming the prey, as a fast-paced comedy to play in St. Paul's newest theater venue: Bedlam Lowertown. Set in the black & white world of the 1932 film along with a live music score, this loud, fast, and uninhibited new stage production promises to be the perfect antidote to post-holiday doldrums. Also, there's beer!
"I wanted to do this show at the Bedlam Lowertown to be part of a theater scene in St. Paul," says Hamburger who wrote and is producing The Most Dangerous Game. "That's been something very important to me, as cheesy as it sounds. I grew up here and I'm excited to be able to bring more theatre and comedy to St. Paul thanks to Bedlam's new Lowertown space."
The Most Dangerous Game, based on the classic short story and 1932 RKO Pictures film, is written and produced by Joey Hamburger, directed by Michael Hugh Torsch, and features Iris Page, Brian Grossman, Matt McGuire, Kevin Callaghan, and Robb Goetzke, with live music and sound effects by Currant Somers.
