Leo Still Dies In The End at Caveat

It’s been 84 years… or 25 years, since April 1999, when six-year-old Alice was finally allowed to watch a recorded-from-HBO VHS of the 1997 James Cameron classic “Titanic”. Since then, Alice has gone through various stages of ‘Titanic-Panic’ ranging from watching it every day to making it a defining part of her personality to editing down her own version that runs at a mere 1 hour and 45 minutes (but with the same emotional gravitas! She swears!) - culminating in this solo reenactment of the timeless story of Jack and Rose, in which she plays all the parts and the scenes are selected at random. In this one-woman show about how childhood obsessions shape who we are as adults and the ever-persistent battle between nostalgia, the poor aging of '90s media, and claims of boats too big to sink, you'll laugh, you’ll cry, your heart will go on (even though Jack’s does not)!

Created and performed by Alice Fishbein, and directed by Ryan Lind.
