The Pillowman - by Martin McDonagh
Directed by Michelle Maccarone
Assistant Directors: Katie Crawford & Matthew Turkle
Stage Manager: Tabatha Ford
Synopsis: Martin McDonagh echoes the works of Stoppard, Kafka, and the Brothers Grimm in this New York Drama Critics' Circle and Olivier Award winning script. The Pillowman is a viciously funny and seriously disturbing tale of Katurian, a fiction writer in an unnamed totalitarian state. Katurian and their brother Michael are brought in for questioning by two bulldog detectives, Tupolski and Ariel, when the content of their short stories - which involve disturbingly gruesome tales - begin to resemble real-life murders. The Pillowman weaves between reality and storytelling; and the result is an urgent work of theatrical bravura and an unflinching examination of the very nature and purpose of art.
**Special note: This show contains both described and illustrated acts of violence against both adults and children and language that some may find disturbing. Please be sure to be familiar with the tone and content of the show and evaluate whether it will be something you wish to perform in.
