The Cabinet of Curiosities
Here's an opportunity to get a preview of the kind of theater you can expect from Alley Cat Theater.
Alley Cat Theater will present a staged reading of the new play, Plank, by John Greiner-Ferris, directed by Megan Schy Gleeson. Plank is a funny, thoughtful, irreverent, sometimes sad story about a woman who is happy and content, adrift on a plank of wood in the middle of the ocean, then she’s “rescued.” Plank addresses some of the most important issues of our time including climate change, refugees, the TSA, Sponge Bob, and how certain political parties resemble swarms of killer bees. Plank is for any age that seeks intelligent, compelling stories that push the boundaries of theater.
