Fat Squirrel to Present EXHAUSTED PAINT: The Death of Van Gogh
Performances will run from October 8-18.
Fat Squirrel will present Exhausted Paint: The Death of Van Gogh, directed by Carly Stroud and starring Drew Stroud in a one-man performance of this immersive theatrical journey penned by local playwright Justin Maxwell.
About the Show
Grounded in the poignant personal writings of Vincent van Gogh, Exhausted Paint weaves together a sequence of monologues drawn from the artist's letters, offering audiences intimate access to his mind and spirit through a dynamic, shifting narrative. As a solo performance, Drew Stroud brings unparalleled vitality and emotional depth to Van Gogh's words, rendering each monologue with authenticity and boldness. Each audience will follow Stroud on a different journey through Van Gogh's life each night -- the order of the monologues for each performance is determined by the spin of a wheel.
