Date
Dec 11, 2021
In residency from December 11–17, 2021
Actor/Director Katiana Rangel, Jim Fletcher, and cellist and composer Lori Goldston refining and developing their two-person, three-character version of Sarah Kane’s 1988 Blasted.
Set in a hotel room in the midst of a war zone, the play casts an unpitying gaze on human beings’ capacity for cruelty and their desperate search for connection to other people. Writing in The New York Times, Ben Brantley wrote that audiences are “compelled to follow an authentic and original voice into theatrical territory you have never visited before.” The residency ended with one work-in-progress showcase performance on December 16.
