SITTING SHOTGUN's Fall 2018 mainstage season includes a contemporary reimagining of The Mad Dog Blues by Sam Shepard, a reading series of new plays, a new devised piece, and a premier of an original play, as well as a festival of horror themed work created by resident ensembles [REALITY PENDING], Cucumber Dogs, and Don't Trust the Postal Service (DTPS) to be presented throughout October. Cucumber Dogs will also present two new pieces at Theater for the New City's Dream Up Festival in August and FringeNYC in October. The season is rounded out with Burn It To the Ground, a performance series curated by DTPS; Poet's Studio, a quarterly celebration of poetry curated and hosted by Jackie Torres; and will close with a special engagement of CARNIVAL OF SOULS presented by Jack Feldstein as a part of Sitting Shotgun's Casual Vacancy residency program.
The final production in SITTING SHOTGUN's inaugural season, In the Tent of the King, is a classically structured Greek play written, conceptualized, and created from a contemporary point of view. The play highlights the divide between the Trojan civilians and the Greek army in the wake of the Trojan War, questioning the equity of being human in a post-war setting, asking the essential question, 'Can a good person do evil things?'
Commedia's Got TALENT is a devised farce featuring characters from the Commedia dell 'Arte canon such as Pantalone, Brighella, Il Dottore and Zanni, and some lesser-used gems such as Pierrot, Colombina, and Peppe Nappa! Faced with a terrifying ultimatum, this cast of characters will have to pull themselves together in order to put on the variety show of their lives! We've got farce, physical comedy, fun, and Lazzi on Lazzi on Lazzi on LAZZI!!
