spit&vigor brings the world premiere of LUNA ECLIPSE to livestream audiences

spit&vigor, a NYC-based, traveling non-profit theater company dedicated to makeshift, skin-of-your-teeth, ad hoc theater, is now on-the-air. Offering videos of their most recent productions as well as Monday night readings and radio-style plays.

Spit&vigor will be presenting the world premiere of another intriguing period piece. THE WAKE OF DORCAS KELLY, a dark comedy written by Sara Fellini (NYIT Award nominee and Planet Award winner) on nominee) is the story of an executed brothel madam and the friends, family, and secrets she left behind. The piece – taking place in Dublin, 1762 – is staged in the round with minimal set pieces, with the audience embedded in the walls and furniture of the brothel-turned-funeral home. Sex, lies, murder, and the untold secrets of the dead are unearthed and exposed.

spit&vigor is thrilled to announce the world premiere of THE WAKE OF DORCAS KELLY, written by Sara Fellini (2015 NYIT Award nominee, 2014 Planet Award winner // 2018 Planet Award Outstanding Direction nominee). Performances are Wednesdays thru Saturdays at 8PM, March 25th to April 12th at The New Ohio Theatre (154 Christopher St 1E, New York, NY 10002). Tickets are $30.
