Presented by the SoHo Playhouse as part of their "Best of SoHo Benefit Streaming Series," and co-produced by Fat Knight Theatre and Lizardfolk, comes the new play by Charlotte Ahlin, PLAGUE DOCTOR, an almost irresponsibly loose retelling of, "The Decameron", directed with humor and heart by David Huynh. Plague Doctor will run March 18th - 21st, at The SoHo Playhouse, and be streamed LIVE. www.stellartickets.com/o/soho-playhouse/events/plague-doctor
The show will be performed live in the SoHo Playhouse's newly renovated loft space, and filmed in real time via multiple cameras, streamed directly to viewers at home. In a time when the global pandemic has rendered most live theatre impossible, this production brings the thrill and intimacy of a live performance to your home's computer or TV screen.
