The Brick Theater, Inc. and Terrible Baby Theater Co. present THE NOSEMAKER'S APPRENTICE: Chronicles of a Medieval Plastic Surgeon Written by Nick Jones and Rachel Shukert Directed by Peter J. Cook (New Director)
Getting laid, or just laid off? Counting quarters for that big date? Moving in because you can split rent? Finding love during pink slip party happy hours or is debt killing your libido? Is being broke tearing you apart and driving you together? If there are two things New York is obsessed with, it's sex and money. And we want your story about broken hearts, and broken banks. Happy endings not required, but appreciated.
A young girl asks her father, where do plastic surgeons come from? What follows is a fantastical romp through pre-civilized Europe, via the medieval art and science of nosemaking. Our hero is Gavin, a young orphan rescued from a dismal existence in the Ivanhoe Workhouse for Criminally Impoverished Boys when he is apprenticed with the local Nosemaker, eventually to become one of the finest surgeons in Vienna, cradle of quack medicine.
