Cast Announced For Synetic's SLEEPY HOLLOW

With the perfect combination of Synetic Theater veterans and first-timers, Paata Tsikurishvili is stacking the deck with his one-of-a-kind production of Washington Irving's Sleepy Hollow. Scott Turner will haunt the stage as the Headless Horseman tumbling and tussling with Vato Tsikurishvili's physically adept Ichabod Crane. Jesse McLean and Jordan Clark Halsey will make their Synetic Theater debuts as the beautiful Katrina Van Tassel and Crane's rival Brom, respectively. Synetic regulars Thomas Beheler (Van Tassel) and Justin Bell (Van Ripper) will return for this hauntingly beautiful Fall spectacle, and are joined by several Synetic alums and new-comers to fill out the cast in the ever-important and varied Ensemble roles.

This production is recommended for ages 13+.

Synetic Theater's adaptation of Sleepy Hollow pulls together all the elements that made Synetic famous: Gothic horror, iconic characters and imagery, an emphasis on surreal, wordless storytelling that transcends spoken language and makes our productions something akin to live-action dreams (or nightmares, depending on the story). This production is recommended for ages 13+.
