Hey you lot! I can now officially announce that my new play, STRANGE CARGO: The Doom of the Demeter will World Premiere this fall as part of City Lit Theater’s 45th Season in Chicago, Illinois!
Based on Chapter Seven of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, this gothic horror high seas adventure tells the shocking events aboard the cargo ship transporting Count Dracula’s belongings from Transylvania to England. Suspicion, paranoia, and madness infect the crew as the harried sailors disappear one by one. Full of creeping mystery, vibrant language, rich characters, sinister vanishings, violent sea storms, swashbuckling action, monstrous puppetry, and, of course, a boatload of terrors, this is the Dracula tale you’ve never seen.
Here’s the link to the lit to the City Lit page: https://www.citylit.org/ A co-production with Black Button Eyes Productions, the play will be directed by the amazing Ed Rutherford and Sound Designed by my criminally talented brother Joe Griffin! Watch this space for ticket info!
BE THERE OR BE ABSENT!
