Unbound Productions is pleased to announce their first event for 2019: a book signing and author reading event at Dark Delicacies in Burbank, CA (3512 W Magnolia Blvd, Burbank, California 91505)! The free event will be an opportunity for fans of the popular immersive theatre events to hear five veteran Wicked Lit playwrights talk about their adaptation process, have their books signed, and also hear favorite sections of select plays performed LIVE by the playwrights themselves.
Continuing with their critically-acclaimed third season, Force of Nature Productions will honor three of their acclaimed affiliated writers with three special nights of staged readings. Performed by an ensemble of seasoned Force of Nature actors, the playwrights will also take part in the three evenings on stage, reading stage directions for each of their plays and providing brief introductions and career-context for each of their pieces. Some gentle razzing may also ensue.

For eight of the last ten years, Wicked Lit has created theatre among the dead - quite literally - at Mountain View Mausoleum in Altadena. Three stories adapted from classic literature have been the norm most recently, with a fourth story functioning as a framing device to connect the pieces and bring a sense of camaraderie to the crowd. The result is an exceedingly entertaining evening of indoor-outdoor theatre in one of the spookiest venues in Southern California.

Unbound Productions producers Jonathan Josephson, Paul Millet and Jeff G. Rack have already proven they can create smart theatre based on classical literature. Their wildly popular Wicked Lit horror series at Mountain View Mausoleum has developed a loyal legion of fans who keep coming back year after year. Now they've taken their outdoor immersive theatre experience and expanded into the mystery genre, mounting their first major production under the moniker Mystery Lit with HOLMES, SHERLOCK AND THE CONSULTING DETECTIVE. Written by Josephson, directed by Millet, and designed by Rack, it combines three of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes mysteries into one epic whodunit.
